Atomic: Living in Dread and Promise
In this month, 70 years ago, the bombing of Hiroshima demonstrated the horrific destructive potential of the atomic bomb. The daring documentary by Mark Cousins examines death and life in the atomic age. The film presents an impressionistic kaleidoscope of our nuclear times, including protest marches, Cold War saber-rattling, Chernobyl, and Fukushima, as well as the exquisite beauty of the atomic world and howx-rays and MRI scans have enhanced human lives. The atomic age has been a horror, but also a dream.
