From executive producers Tom Hanks, Gary Goetzman and Mark Herzog, this eight-part documentary picks up where the earlier critically acclaimed and highly-rated series `The Sixties' ended.

Also covered are the Iran Hostage Crisis, the sexual revolution, the Munich Olympics massacre, and the kidnapping of Patty Hearst. The documentary combines archival newsreel footage, personal movies, interviews, and comments by historians, journalists, politicians, celebrities and others, bringing new perspectives about a consequential decade.
