Synopsis

In the gripping Cold War thriller "Code to Zero," a man named Luke wakes up in a public restroom with no memory of who he is or how he got there. He soon discovers it's January 29, 1958, and the news is dominated by America's third attempt to launch the Explorer, its first satellite, crucial for winning the space race against the Soviet Union. As Luke desperately tries to uncover his identity, he realizes his predicament is deeply intertwined with his past at Harvard University. There, he was part of a close-knit group of two men and two women, entangled in a web of romantic and political loyalties, unknowingly positioned on opposing sides of the escalating Cold War. The intense love and hate between these four characters during their youth now dictate a life-or-death struggle, as the countdown to the Explorer launch at Cape Canaveral ticks relentlessly. Luke must piece together the shattered fragments of his memory before it's too late, not just for himself, but for the balance of global power.
