Big Bang

Post-war United States, and a new "normal" is being developed. We see Lucille Ball's bizarre interrogation by the House UnAmerican Activities Committee and Jackie Onassis' moonlight cruise with Frank Sinatra. We follow Norman Mailer and Arthur Miller as they attempt to get quickie divorces together at a loophole resort in Nevada. Howard Hunt snoops around South America with the newly founded CIA, and young Jimi Hendrix tries his luck as a clean cut army recruit. As events lead up to the November, 22th 1963 assassination of President Kennedy, the country is at the beginning of the end. -- adapted from jacket
