Transatlantic

The broad landscape of TRANSATLANTIC begins in 1917 Russia when the Tishin family escapes Lenin's new government to flee to Canada. When Stalin takes power seven years later, Serge Guryev begins a similar trek, leaving his wife behind. She finds her place in the Soviet world with Peter Ivanov, the facility manager of the Soviet Proton Accelerator. Their brilliant daughter Izabella assists in the development of the Russian doomsday bomb. By the 1960's, in an era coping with the threat of nuclear holocaust, the Tishin, Guryev, and Ivanov families confront modern economics, love, and survival.
