Synopsis

Spoiler shield

On May 1, 1960, on the eve of the meeting of the heads of government of the USSR and the United States, American pilot Francis Powers carried out a provocative "Flight" action on a Lockheed U-2 aircraft. While crossing the border, the plane was shot down, and a secret CIA agent, pilot Powers, appeared in court, and soon fully admitted his guilt. Fragments of the process and all the events related to the provocative flight are reproduced with documentary accuracy.
