As the American dream of space explorations devolves
into the nightmare of orbiting nuclear defense shields, aerospace
engineer Jerry Reed casts his lot with the Europeans to preserve
his own commitment to his country's abandoned ideals. Shifting
international alliances, however, spell disaster for an
increasingly isolationist United States, and the fortunes of Reed
and his family (a Russian wife and two culture-torn children) fall
prey to "politicians' politics."
