Synopsis by Hal Erickson

Si Tous Les Gars du Monde is an entertaining tribute to the ham radio operators of the world. The story begins when a French shipping boat takes on an Arab passenger. While on the high seas, the Arab becomes seriously ill with a communicable disease that threatens the lives of everyone on board. Unable to reach the proper medical authorities, the boat sends out a desperate S.O.S., whereupon several amateur-radio enthusiasts of different nationalities spring into action. Directed and co-scripted by noted filmmaker Christian-Jacque, Si Tous les Gars du Monde is more familiar to Late Late Show devotees under its English-language title, If All the Guys in the World
