The documentary sets in 1966: four thermonuclear bombs with the capacity to cause the largest atomic explosion in the history of humanity fall on a small village in the Mediterranean coast. One of the 4 bombs would not be found for 80 days. 55 years later, Palomares… reconstructs the events of those days for the first time in this uncensured thriller-style documentary series.
