When a sin­gle, unat­tri­bu­ted mis­sile is laun­ched at the United States, a race beg­ins to deter­mi­ne who is respon­si­ble and how to respond.

Director’s Statement
I grew up in an era when hiding under your school desk was con­side­red the go-to pro­to­col for sur­vi­ving an ato­mic bomb. It seems absurd now — and it was — but at the time, the thre­at felt so imme­dia­te that such mea­su­res were taken serious­ly. Today, the dan­ger has only escala­ted. Multiple nati­ons pos­sess enough nuclear wea­pons to end civi­li­sa­ti­on within minu­tes. And yet, there’s a kind of coll­ec­ti­ve numb­ness — a quiet nor­ma­li­sa­ti­on of the unthinkable. How can we call this “defen­se” when the ine­vi­ta­ble out­co­me is total des­truc­tion?
I wan­ted to make a film that con­fronts this para­dox — to explo­re the mad­ness of a world that lives under the con­stant shadow of anni­hi­la­ti­on, yet rare­ly speaks of it.
