As the unthinkable approaches. In September of 1983: Passenger Airliner KAL 007 is shot down by Soviet MIG Fighter planes with no survivors. A Soviet early-warning satellites false report of incoming U.S. missiles brings the US and the USSR to the brink of total war. On November 2nd 1983: Operation Able Archer is ordered by the United States to test its nuclear launch procedures across a broad spectrum as suspicion of a first strike places the two superpowers on hair-trigger alert. On both sides, soldiers and citizens alike fear inevitable conflict between the two nations with their very lives trapped in the dark shadows of nuclear annihilation. From an Air Force Captain trapped in Moscow with a sexy Cuban Major pointing her pistol at him to a Professor constructing a fallout shelter in Virginia while his wife commits adultery, the terror is real. When a thousand missiles launch from their silos on land and from submarines at sea, it is too late for negotiation! Could the end of the world actually be a second chance?
