It is the dawn of World War III. In mid-western America, a group of teenagers band together to defend their town—and their country—from invading Soviet forces.
When foreign paratroopers seize control of your quiet American hometown, your only hope lies in a ragtag band of high school students. These teenagers trade textbooks for rifles to wage a desperate guerrilla war against a massive invading force.
