Fukushima: A Nuclear Story
Fukushima: A Nuclear Story
Pio d’Emilia travels across the municipalities hit by the tsunami and enters the "exclusion zone" established but loosely enforced by the government. He had to wait until June 2013 when the plant's operator TEPCO allows the first pool of foreign journalists in. In his quest to chronicle and unfold Fukushima's still on-going nuclear disaster, he collected over 300 hours of footage consisting of shocking images and interviews with local people, local authorities and officers. An in-depth exclusive interview on what really happened at Fukushima with ex-Prime Minister Naoto Kan eventually tells us how Japan was saved from a greater catastrophe.
