To a certain extent, that’s understandable. The ’80s had some fun times for pop culture lovers. But the new drama, Armageddon Time, is taking a decidedly darker look at what life was like for a young Jewish boy named Paul Graff.

ARMAGEDDON TIME - Official Trailer - In Select Theaters October 28 Perhaps the most disturbing, and thus realistic, aspect of the trailer is that it’s pretty clear that Paul does pull away from Johnny. Instead of defending his friend against his new classmates, Paul looks uneasy as he listens to their racist remarks about Johnny. It’s a tough situation to be in, but Paul isn’t making the right choices and that may cost him his friendship with Johnny.
It may also weigh heavily on his soul. The one family member who actually gives Paul some good advice is his grandfather, Aaron.
