# Immigrants (2008 film)

Immigrants (Hungarian title: Immigrants - Jóska menni Amerika) is a 2008 adult animated comedy film directed by Gábor Csupó. It is also known as L.A. Dolce Vita or Immigrants: L.A. Dolce Vita. It is the fifth and (to date) final feature-length film from the studio Klasky Csupo, and the first and only feature-length animated movie that was directed by Csupo. It is also the only Klasky Csupo film without Paramount Pictures or Nickelodeon's involvement.
The characters and storyline in this film were the basis for a new animated series for Spike TV, which was scheduled to debut in August 2004. However, despite scheduling a two-hour marathon for the series premiere and ordering an additional six episodes, the series never aired due to the decline of animation programming on Spike TV. It was later compiled into a film and released in Hungary on October 30, 2008.
In America, the film was released on Region 1 DVD in 2009 by Echo Bridge Home Entertainment.

## Plot

Jóska, a Hungarian immigrant in Los Angeles, shares an apartment with Vladislav, a Russian immigrant. In their quest for the "American Dream", they encounter all kinds of troubles, wild adventures and comical situations. The pair are routinely saved by their big hearts and loyalty to each other in this unlikely tale of friendship in a foreign country.

## Characters

* Vladislav is a Russian immigrant who has a teenage daughter, Anya. He desperately seeks to land a job to support his daughter and Jóska, he occasionally lets out a jolly-like laugh whenever he's happy.
* Jóska is a Hungarian immigrant and is a roommate of Vladislav. Unlike his friend, he is somewhat familiar with US culture, he occasionally whistles a happy tune.

* Splits is a black African neighbor of Jóska and Vladislav. He routinely informs anyone who will listen that he had sex with a thousand women.
* Greta Night is the old landlady of the foreign occupants.
