Summary Moving, unforgettable living witnesses who survived two of the world's most momentous radiation crises: Nagasaki in 1945 and Fukushima in 2011. They are interlaced with nuclear experts and archival footage, some shocking, illuminating the largely unrecognized connection between nuclear weapons and nuclear power, and the growing global movements to abolish both. The documentary is both a tragic and an inspirational example of courageous women in the face of environmental catastrophes and an alert to everyone today about the dangers of continued nuclear proliferation and nuclear power. "very powerfuleimperative viewing for younger generations that have no concept of what 'nuclear'means." - Dr. Helen Caldicott,Physicians for Social Responsibility founder "No film on our nuclear madness has so moved me with the promise of our humanity. What a stunning achievement! For the love of life, may this jewel of a film be seen in every classroom and council chamber." - Joanna Macy, author, Active Hope: How to Face the Mess We're in Without Going Crazy.
