Befuddled English cartographer Reginald Anson (Hugh Grant) and his corpulent partner, George Garrard (Ian McNeice), upset an entire Welsh community when they arrive to measure the town's peak and declare it 16 feet shy of mountain status. Incensed that their local landmark -- and source of civic pride -- is about to be downgraded to a hill, the townsfolk band together and devise an ambitious scheme to remedy the situation. Based on a true story.
