Designated Survivor DVD Box 1

[Machine Translation] Don't fight your destiny! Change your destiny! Everything changes in an instant - because you were a "designated survivor". However, that was only the beginning. Kiefer Sutherland, who said he would never appear in a drama again, retracts his previous statement due to the interesting script and now plays the president in a suspense drama! --The Capitol building where the State of the Union Address is being delivered is blown up by someone, and Congress and the Cabinet are devastated. The President and other high-ranking politicians were all killed. Tom Kirkman, a low-ranking cabinet member who had been on standby as a "designated survivor," is suddenly appointed president. As president, Kirkman is charged with the responsibility of leading the country in an unstable political climate, and at the same time, he struggles to find the perpetrators of the horrific bombing of the U.S. Capitol building. But that is only the beginning of a great conspiracy... Set in the chaos of the White House, the story depicts the unexpected birth of a new president who, while at the mercy of political intrigue, confronts the threat of terrorism to protect his country and family from collapse, and unifies a chaotic America as he closes in on the identity of the terrorists. Includes episodes 1-10.
