Synopsis
In a secret war across all of time between two factions called the Spiders and the Snakes, entertainers and soldiers gather in the Place, a pocket of reality outside space-time, to rest between missions. When an activated atomic bomb is discovered inside the Place and the door to the cosmos slams shut, the trapped inhabitants must uncover the saboteur among them before time runs out.
