Descripción

´Los sesenta’ proporciona una nostálgica revisión de esa tumultuosa década a través de 10 capítulos en los que, de la mano de expertos y testigos, se repasa la mágica historia de aquellos inolvidables años. La serie se ocupa de asuntos como el avance de la televisión como medio capaz de influenciar a la opinión pública -a partir de los debates Kennedy-Nixon, de la retransmisión del asesinato de John F. Kennedy y del éxito de programas tan innovadores como "Star Trek”-, la Guerra de Vietnam, el desembarco de los Beatles en América, la eclosión de las drogas, el sexo y el rock and roll, la llegada del hombre a la Luna, el auge de las protestas en pos de los derechos civiles y el asesinato de Kennedy, entre otros muchos.
