Amerika -- suggesting a Russian name for the United States -- was an American television miniseries that was broadcast in 1987. It starred Kris Kristofferson, Mariel Hemingway, Sam Neill, Robert Urich, and a 17-year-old Lara Flynn Boyle in her first major role. Amerika was about life in the United States after a bloodless takeover by the Soviet Union.

The intent, he later explained, was to explore the American spirit under such conditions, not to portray the conflict of the Soviet takeover. ...more on Wikipedia about "Amerika (TV miniseries)"
