"In August 1980, 12-year-old Polovchak requested political asylum in the U.S. (the youngest person ever to do so) rather than return with his disenchanted emigre parents to their native Ukraine.".

This is the true story of the boy who caused such a stir when he defected from the Soviet Union back in the '80s, against the wishes of his family.
