Synopsis by Dan Pavlides

A student is caught up in the turbulence of political activism and campus protest. Mike Corbet (Michael Smith) joins a group that plans to delay the induction of draftees from reaching the Iocal military induction center. His girlfriend Lee (Lesley Gilbrun) is concerned for Mike's safety as anti-war protesters and police clash at the scene. Professor Williams (Tom Maier) is the sympathetic instructor who observes the student protest. A nude scene seems to have been inserted merely for exploitation value and to seek an "X" rating to draw more viewers.
