In the wake of Fukushima, debate over whether we were safeguarded against similar nuclear disasters was conspicuous by its absence. Peter Galison and Robb Moss’ documentary is certainly a conversation starter. Pulling back the curtain on weapons manufacturing and nuclear-waste disposal, it reveals a New Mexican desert that isn’t so much a final resting place for radioactive materials as a ticking time bomb. Skilfully incorporating animation, this explosive investigative documentary speculates at how future generations will contend with the fallout from our sins.
