Fukushima. In search of the spirit of the zone.
A story of nature, men, women, resilience, and failing technology. Decontamination workers of the power plant open secretly their daily lives to the camera.
Waves crash eternally on the shore of Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant. Next to a white facility for radioactive waste burning, children play on the ground, black bags of contaminated soil pile up, while grass grows wild in-between.
The film relates the stories of people who survived the tsunami and were forced to leave, people who came back to save their country, and people who came to work from very far for money, decontamination workers of Fukushima Daiichi. In the zone, invisible traumas are everywhere.
The film is a story of resilience, failed technology, and the transformation of a territory. In Japan, the government wishes to forget and go forward, but the traces can not be erased that easily.
