"This is the single most heavily documented UFO Case in the history of UFOs." - - Jose Escamilla

On February 25, 1942, only eleven weeks after the unforgettable attack on Pearl Harbor, an unidentified aircraft appeared in the sky above Culver City, California.  Just before 2:30 a.m., military personnel launched an assault on the hovering object, firing more than 1,400 rounds of anti-aircraft artillery into the air.  The onslaught was witnessed by more than one million people. It made the front page of the Los Angeles Times.  They called  it "The L.A. Raid"
 
After more than 90 minutes of battle, the unscathed craft simply disappeared over the Pacific Ocean.  It was never seen again, and this event was destined to become forgotten history…until now.
 
Filmed at the exact locations where the battle took place, actors revive this incredible event.  Witness a new form of documentary filmmaking from the mind of Jose Escamilla.  It's time to re-live this historic night.  You deserve to know the truth.
