"Man holds in his mortal hands the power to abolish all forms of life." - JFK. On the eve of the new millennium, a nervous military commander gathers a specialist team after learning that a long‑lost nuclear missile has been hidden deep in a jungle and is programmed to detonate in January 2000 because of the millennium‑bug. The group must race against time to locate and disarm the weapon before it triggers catastrophe.
