The film, written by Kevin Hood (biographical melodrama Jane Austen), refers to several days in 1986, when a historic meeting took place in the capital of Iceland, Reykjavik. Soviet Secretary General Mikhail Gorbachev met with US President Ronald Reagan to begin peace talks. This event was the starting point for the disarming of the two nuclear superpowers and thus the end of the Cold War, which for decades had kept the world at bay.
