HARVARD TEAM SEAL... OPERATION: DRAKE'S CASTLE
By John G Tucker

GENRE: Drama
LOGLINE:


 A Harvard professor and former Navy SEAL leads his student Special Forces Team on several dangerous missions to combat hate-driven violence and ultimately bring down a fanatic fascist President.

SYNOPSIS:

Lt. Mark Stevens, a former Navy SEAL turned Harvard government professor, recruits five of his students for a Special Forces Team to combat a clear and present domestic danger.

Lt. Stevens, a Medal of Honor recipient, and his student recruits carry out several dangerous missions to douse the wildfire of violence and hate stoked by a racist and fascist President, Donald Nelson, who's essentially gone mad.

The President's unhinged behavior is threatening the American way of life and jeopardizing the country's democracy; it's also causing irreparable damage to the world view of America.

Lt. Stevens and Harvard Team SEAL recognize the dire state of affairs, politically and socially... domestically and internationally.

They gather intel through state-of-the-art hacking methods, researching several Alt-right social media platforms and on-the-street surveillance, and then they mobilize on several dangerous missions with the goal of snuffing out hate-driven violence.

Their ultimate mission is to bring down the deranged President, who incites the violence with his hateful rhetoric.

Stevens' Special Forces Team of student soldiers is able to nail down the location of what they expect could be a catastrophic confrontation between thousands of white supremacists and Neo-Nazis and thousands of antifa and anti-Nelson protesters.

They have no reason to expect otherwise; several hundred people have already been killed in violent confrontations at President Nelson's rallies leading up to the D.C. debate.

The forces of evil will meet the forces of good outside the Walter E. Convention Center in Washington, D.C., site of the democratic presidential debate.

A billionaire backer of the Alt-right movement has missiles on his 150-foot yacht, anchored five miles off the coast and within striking distance of his D.C. targets.

Lt. Stevens, his student recruits and the SEAL comrade he rescued in Afghanistan, Lt. Marcus Latimore, may be the only hope of preventing a catastrophic event in the nation's capital and preserving America's sense of values.

My original screenplay is a forward-looking work of commercial fiction that is based in the reality of the times in which we live. It's a story about what realistically could happen if nothing is done to change the political discourse, as well as economic and social injustices, in America.

It is a story about a time when reality converges with fiction, and only time will tell whether fiction becomes the reality. It is a fiction/reality tango.
