Early Warnings

Early Warnings is a tense, ground-level exploration of how the end of the world actually begins—not with alarms or speeches, but with doubt, procedure, and people doing their jobs too well.

In the red heart of Australia, a signals analyst at Pine Gap detects something that doesn't fit: fragments of launch-sequence traffic buried beneath routine noise. What begins as an anomaly escalates into a convergence of confirmations—Russia, China, North Korea—each step filtered through protocol, correlation, and command chains designed to prevent panic rather than stop catastrophe.

As warnings move upward through sealed rooms and clipped voices, the story shifts to the other end of the chain: an underground missile silo where two operators execute a directive they did not choose, within a system engineered to remove hesitation, morality, and doubt.

Told with clinical restraint and human precision, Early Warnings is not about heroes or villains. It is about systems, obedience, and the quiet moment when being right is no longer enough to save anyone.
