В этом пародийном документальном фильме используются архивные кадры, интервью и отчеты, вырванные из контекста, и постановочные интервью, чтобы подчеркнуть возможную эскалацию ядерной войны. В этой особенности напряженность в Восточной Германии и восстание, спровоцированное визитом Горбачева, видят успешный военный переворот, происходящий в СССР. Действия Запада против жестоких репрессий против гражданского населения усиливают напряженность между сторонами, что в конечном итоге приводит к ядерной войне.
