Amidst rising tensions in a fading Cold War, a group of Soviet insurgents launches a nuclear warhead that devastates Donetsk, Ukraine. This catastrophic event ignites a frantic scramble among American and Soviet leaders to avert a full-scale nuclear disaster. As the U.S. president struggles to maintain control over military and political responses, chaos ensues among his anxious advisors. The situation escalates when news of the president’s presumed death in a helicopter crash creates a power vacuum, allowing overzealous aides to seize control and heightening the risk of global annihilation.
