This mock documentary uses archival footage, interviews and reports taken out of context and staged interviews to highlight a possible escalation into a nuclear war. In this feature, tension in East Germany, and an uprising triggered by a visit by Gorbachev sees a successful military coup taking place in the USSR. Western actions against brutal crack-downs on civilians involved increases tension between the sides, finally resulting in nuclear war.—Herman Rethuan
A fake documentary about World War III, that broke out after Gorbatchev was overthrown in the USSR after visiting the German Democratic Republic in October 1989 and replaced by a radical general, who tried to re-establish communist rulership in Eastern Europe. After a shooting at the Berlin wall on November 9, all chances for a peaceful solution of the conflict in the GDR (the people wanted to get rid of their government) are gone, and soon the world's on fire.—Stephan Eichenberg <[email protected]>
