Synopsis by Sandra Brennan
The fiery end of the world is chronicled in this speculative Japanese drama. The end begins when the US accidently explodes a nuclear bomb over South Korea. This begins WW III between the two Superpowers. The battle starts in Tokyo and quickly encompasses the rest of the world. Only Argentina is spared from the holocaust. Meanwhile, an irradiated and dying journalist wanders amongst the rubble searching for his lost lover.
