Summary: One midsummer day in Colorado, a bunch of Russian paratroopers float to earth and start killing innocent people. In the panic, eight young high school students escape to the mountains. As the days turn to weeks, they realise they must either become tough guerrillas or lose their freedom to a communist enemy.

In the heartland of America, Russian and Cuban paratroopers begin to drop outside while classes go on in the high school. When the soldiers begin killing everyone in sight, local teens take to the hills to avoid the new totalitarian regime established in their little town and, as we later learn, throughout the world. As country folk, they are well familiarized with survival tactics and hunting, which allows them to carry out sophisticated acts of military sabotage, upsetting the balance of power in town with their guerilla warfare.
