Fukushima: Downwind From Disaster (2013x1)

Data de estreia: Jan 01, 2013

Minamisoma, Fukushima Prefecture Earthquake, tsunami, nuclear catastrophe. This is a record of people in that one town caught up in the triple disaster. Threatened by the unseen forces of radiation, what did the residents do? What was their state of mind? "Why should we evacuate, why do we have to flee?" Toshikazu Owada, Minamisoma City Official: They came in from the lobby over there. Self Defense Force personnel. Running and shouting, "The nuclear plant will explode. Evacuate to at least 100 kilometers." They were shouting in loud voices and rushing all around. Outside a steady stream of Self Defense Force vehicles was already heading out of town. Seeing them evacuate made me realize this was serious.
