In 1961, Dag Hammarskjöld has one year left as Secretary General of the United Nations. The Cold War is at its peak, and its epicenter is the newly formed Democratic Republic of Congo. Dag Hammarskjöld takes it upon himself to create a unified and peaceful nation out of the chaos left behind by Belgium. Most would call it an impossible task, maybe even a suicidal one.
