The year is 2016, and President Kennedy is being murdered — again and again and again.The director has come to the charred ruins of New York to re-enact a mad dream from the past — the assassination of President Kennedy. As actors, he has the primitive race who inhabit the city. With them and his glamorous, dark haired lover, he rehearses everything — the motorcade, the shots, the panic.But at the last moment it all goes wrong. When the flower-filled limousine rounds the bend, the passenger is not Kennedy — but the Director himself.Shots ring out in a wild explosion of roses.
