Tsai Yu-Hsuan
Taiwan/65min./2015
Instead of focusing on the subject of nuclear disasters, this film is centered around how people view and deal with these tragic events.Experts in the related areas answer our many questions and advice us on what actions to take in the hours, days, months, or even decades after a nuclear disaster. We touch upon every aspect of what life could become of in the aftermath.
But, what exactly IS a perfect fallout drill? Are the scenarios we prepare for anywhere close to the real deal? These all come from one crucial question: What is a nuclear disaster?
Perhaps, while facts known are being examined, so are the unknown.
