DIRECTOR’S STATEMENT

Earthquake, Tsunami, and Nuclear leak. They were the kind of disaster that might come once in a thousand years. The tragedy of March 11th 2011 left its victims in North- Eastern Fukushima but even the journalists left the area as the threat of radiation became known. Fukushima now remains inhabited island with only superficial facts known to the world. The film delivers the anti-nuclear effort of the doctor Imamoto who remains alone in the Nuclear plant 20km zone and his respect for life, though a lonely and dangerous fight, is held on screen revealed.
