Description:
In the mid-1980s, a drama unfolds in a small Kansas town under the shadow of Cold War tensions. The lives of ordinary people – Dr. Russell Oakes, preparing for his work at the hospital; Denise Dahlberg, planning her wedding; and Stephen Klein, pursuing his graduate studies – are disrupted by the looming threat of nuclear war. When disaster strikes, they are forced to confront the harsh realities of a post-apocalyptic world and the devastating consequences of war.
