The risk of nuclear conflict is higher today than ever before.

In the film, the US military discovers an intercontinental ballistic missile over the Pacific Ocean that could reach the US mainland within minutes, highlighting the vulnerability of sophisticated defence systems.

The film reflects an increasingly realistic scenario of our present, showing how quickly a single attack using a nuclear weapon could escalate into a global catastrophe within minutes.
