One evening in 1983, at the height of Cold War tension, a Soviet officer in a military bunker makes the most important decision of his life. Weeks later he is interrogated by his superiors, who seek to understand: did Stanislav Petrov betray his country? Or is it possible he saved the world? Fifty-Fifty is a fifteen-minute musical based on a declassified true story.
