Inspired by the events of the 11-day standoff in 1981 between Sweden and the U.S.S.R. when a Soviet U-137 'Whiskey'-class submarine ran aground on rocks deep inside Swedish territorial waters.
Whiskey on the Rocks is an alternative take on what truly happened during the dramatic days at the turn of the month in October and November 1981, when the Soviet submarine U-137 ran aground in the Karlskrona archipelago, just a stone throw away from Swedens largest marine base. Never before has the world been closer to full-scale global conflict and all responsibility now rests on the shoulders of one man, Sweden's Prime Minister Thorbjörn Fälldin.
