Okay, first off, this film would in no way be made in the US; the film is much too graphic, too disturbing, and too pessimistic for the general t.v.-viewing American audience. That said, this is easily one of the best films dealing with nuclear war ever made. That the conflict in the film is sparked by shannanegans in Iran makes the film all the more relevant and scary today, in 2005. Hopefully it'll come out on DVD soon in the states...till then, see this film.
