The Roswell Incident

STUDIO MINUIT
About this episode

July 3rd, 1947. The summer sky over New Mexico in the southwestern United States is stormy. Flashes of lightning streak through the night and thunder rumbles. In the early morning, Mac Brazel discovers metal debris strewn on the ground of his ranch in Corona. Unable to identify them nor to understand their origin, he shows them to his neighbors, the Proctors. They can't identify them either. By mutual agreement, they decide to show them to Sheriff George Wilcox. Just as intrigued, the latter alerts the Roswell military base, which sends two soldiers to examine them : Major Jesse Marcel and Captain Sheridan Cavitt. On July 7th, 1947, they themselves recover more debris and bring it back to the base.
