The short film employs the question as its premise, and explores the 1983 Soviet nuclear false alarm incident, presenting to you a situation where things are escalating in a manner far from how they progressed in the real world.<br><br>

The result is an entertaining, humorous and engaging story about the chaos that unfolds inside a Soviet communication bunker. Officer Krovolov and his intern Vlad are presented with a high-stakes circumstance, and thus begins their misadventure of accidentally launching Soviet missiles in retaliation to a false US threat. As the duo tries to figure out the mess at hand, the smug, self-assured officer, along with his sincere subordinate, finds himself getting entangled with a high-strung Moscow office, and a drawly, indifferent US official. <br><br>
