Synopsis
A man wakes up with no memory, disoriented in a public restroom. He soon discovers it's January 29, 1958, and the US is on the verge of launching its first satellite. His amnesia seems tied to his past at Harvard, where intense relationships with two men and two women put them on opposing sides of the Cold War. Now, their youthful entanglements will dictate a high-stakes confrontation as the space race countdown begins.
