Synopsis
A television movie about fifteen volunteers from different countries who agree to participate in a psychological experiment set in a nuclear bomb shelter in Germany. While inside, they learn that an accidental launch of armed missiles is targeted for their location. As the international experiment is about to turn into a colossal nightmare, the questions that arise are whether the participants should open the shelter door and let outsiders in or defend themselves in a violent struggle for survival.
