This is the sad story of the real life
0:02
Incredibles. Back in the 1970s during
0:05
the Cold War, a man named Jim and his
0:07
wife Helena were part of the United
0:09
States military. During these years, the
0:11
situation was very tense between the
0:13
United States and the Soviet Union
0:16
having economic, ideological, and social
0:18
confrontations. There was also a
0:20
competition to know who had the best
0:22
military technology between these two
0:24
countries. That is why the US government
0:26
started a project called the Incredibles
0:29
which sought to turn the military into
0:31
superhumans in order to be able to fight
0:33
in war. Because of this, Helena and Jim
0:36
were selected and to everyone's
0:38
surprise, the project was a success.
0:41
Both had superpowers. But all this was a
0:43
secret. So Jim and Helena could not
0:45
leave the military base because they
0:47
were going to be used in case of a
0:48
military conflict. Because of this, they
0:51
both decided to escape and start a
0:53
family. But surprisingly, their children
0:55
also developed powers. They tried to
0:58
live a normal life as much as possible,
1:00
but the government was after them until
1:02
the 1990s when the family disappeared.
