About the International Uranium Film Festival
Climate and demographic change as well as energy security will determine the global
development agenda in the twenty-first century. The nuclear industry would like to have us believe
that the solution to meeting these challenges can be found in nuclear energy, and mining
companies are constantly looking for new uranium deposits. Yet, nuclear accidents do happen and
when they do have most devastating effects on local and regional populations, whether nuclear
reactor accidents like Fukushima, Chernobyl, or uranium mine disasters such as Church Rock and
Goinia (Brazil). Concerned citizens and indigenous peoples the world over from Australia to India
and the United States are fighting every risky phase along the uranium fuel chain from uranium
mining to radioactive waste dumps.
The International Uranium Film Festival aims to highlight some of the personal stories associated
with these developments. It is the first annual film festival that addresses the problems with nuclear
and radioactive issues, such as the nuclear fuel chain, uranium mining, atomic weapons, nuclear
power plants and nuclear waste deposits.. The most important films of the year receive the
Uranium Film Festivals award, the Yellow Oscar.
After premiering in Rio de Janeiro in 2011, the festival has traveled to other major cities in Brazil
and around the world. The festival has been featured in So Paulo, Recife, Salvador & Fortaleza,
Lisbon and Porto in Portugal, in Berlin and Munich in Germany, and in ten major cities in India
including New Delhi, Hyderabad and Mumbai.
The Uranium Film Festival Team is grateful to the Heinrich Bll Stiftung North America and the
Goethe Institute Washington DC for supporting and hosting the festival in February 2014. And the
festival is grateful to the Brazilian supporters, the FAETEC (Fundao de Apoio Escola Tcnica) of
the State of Rio de Janeiro and Heinrich Bll Stiftung Brasil.

MOVIE OVERVIEW
Monday, February 10 - 4 PM
THE ATOMIC STATES OF AMERICA
USA, 2011, 92 min, Directors: Don Argott &
Sheena M. Joyce, Documentary, English
In 2010, the United States approved the first new
nuclear power plant in 32 years, heralding an
anticipated renaissance. But that was before
the Fukushima accident in Japan renewed a
fierce public debate over the safety and viability
of nuclear power. The Atomic States of America
journeys to nuclear reactor communities around
the country to provide a comprehensive
exploration of the history and impact to date of
nuclear power, and to investigate the truths and
myths about nuclear energy. Potent, emotionally
powerful, and highly revealing, the film by Don
Argott and Sheena Joyce does an outstanding
job of opening our eyes to the reality of nuclear
power. We all live downstream from
something, one protagonist reminds us in this cautionary call for action. Trailer:http://

6:30 PM
TAILINGS
USA, 2012, 12 min,
Director: Sam Price-
Waldman
Documentary, English
Just outside Grants in
New Mexico there is a
200-acre heap of toxic
uranium waste known as
tailings. After 30 years of
failed cleanup, the waste
has deeply contaminated
the air and water near
the former uranium
capital of the world. The film is a cinematic investigation of the pile that is gravely shaping the lives
of those who are stuck living in its shadow. http://tailingsfilm.com

YELLOW CAKE: THE DIRT BEHIND URANIUM
Germany, 2010, 108 min, Director:
Joachim Tschirner, Documentary, English
Uranium mining, the first link in the chain
of nuclear development, manages again
and again to keep itself out of the public
eye. A web of propaganda,
disinformation, and lies covers its 65-year
history. The third largest uranium mine in
the world was located in the East German
provinces of Saxony and Thuringia.
Operating until the Reunification, it had
the codename wismut (bismuth
translated from German) although it
supplied the Soviet Union exclusively with
the much sought-after strategic resource -
yellow cake. Until 1990 WISMUT supplied
the Soviet Union with 220,000 tons of
uranium. In absolute terms this quantity
was enough for the production of 32,000
Hiroshima bombs. The film explores the
biggest clean-up operation in the history
of uranium mining and also takes viewers
to huge mines in Namibia, Australia and Canada. www.umweltfilm.de
Yellow Cake is a result of a project that
began in 2002. The declaration from the
World Uranium Hearing became essential
for the meaning of the film (I think we
need to know what that was to understand
why it inspired him). According to
Joachim: Radioactivity knows no cultural
differences or political boundaries. In a
mutated world, poisoned by deadly
radioactivity, it will no longer be of
importance whether we separate our
garbage, drive fewer cars, use phosphate
free detergent, or plant a tree. Nor will it
matter if we spend our time trying to save the elephants. Whatever action we would take at that
point would be superfluous and devoid of meaning. That is why the end of the atomic age must
begin with the first link in the chain of nuclear production the uranium mining. During my
research, I experienced that despite its explosive nature, uranium mining seldom makes it into
public awareness. The film Yellow Cake is my reaction to this unacceptable situation. For me it was
quite clear that unbiased, well researched information about uranium mining is absolutely
necessary. Joachim Tschirner

THE LAST FLOWER
Iran, 2013, 6 min, Director: Sima Baghery,
Fiction, Animation, No dialogue
An atomic world war destroys all of civilization.
Everybody is wondering around lost, neglecting
each other. Until one day when a young girl
finds the last flower on Earth. She runs to people
telling them about the flower, but people do not
care. At last, a young man shows interest...
Meanwhile the war machine factories appear
and the story of war begins again. Special
Achievement Award, Uranium Film Festival 2013.
MOAB
Israel, 2012, 3 min, Director: Keren Zaltz
Experimental Film, No dialogue
Moab includes authentic footage of bombing from the
popular and propaganda movies that were created by the
American government during the Cold War. The footage
was edited using a technique reminiscent of the
photomontage style that was used in photography at the
end of the 19
th
century and in filmmaking between the two world wars. The photomontage brings
up questions of reality and fiction and deals with the areas of ethics and aesthetics.
ATOMIC BOMBS ON THE PLANET EARTH
UK/Netherlands, 2011, 13 min,
Director: Peter Greenaway, Video
Design: Irma de Vries,
experimental documentary,
English
Astonishingly, between 1945 to
1989, 2201 atomic bombs were
dropped on planet Earth - an
astonishing number implying
huge destruction and fall-out.
The film shows evidence of every
bomb explosion, documented with the nation responsible for it, the date and location, the force
and the height about the earth or at sea level. It builds up the accumulating destruction that is
both awe-inspiring and dreadful in the true biblical sense of the phrase - full of dread. Special
Achievement Award, Uranium Film Festival 2012

NUCLEAR SAVAGE: THE ISLANDS OF SECRET PROJECT 4.1
USA, 2012, 87 min, Director: Adam Jonas
Horowitz, Documentary, Marshallese & English
The term savage is used to refer to people from
primitive cultures. But this documentary shows
how savagery reaches new levels with the advent
of advanced technology. In the 1950s the U.S.
conducted 67 nuclear tests in the Marshall
Islands, vaporizing islands and exposing entire
populations to fallout. The people of Rongelap
received near fatal doses of radiation from one of
these tests, and were then moved to a highly
contaminated island to serve as guinea pigs to
test the effects of radiation on humans for almost
30 years, where they suffered from recurring
cancers and birth defects that have affected
multiple generations. Jury Prize, Festivales
Internationales des Filmes Environmentales,
Yellow Oscar 2013. Trailer:

ABITA: CHILDREN FROM FUKUSHIMA
Germany, 2012, min, Directors: Shoko Hara and Paul Brenner,
Animation, English subtitles
A film about children in Fukushima who can't play outside
anymore because nature is radioactive contaminated. To play
outside is only a dream. Yellow Oscar, 2013.
FORBIDDEN GROUND FUKUSHIMA
Japan, 2012, 57 min, Director and Producer:
Kazunori Kurimoto, Documentary, Japanese,
English subtitles
The film is a documentary on the aftermath of the
disaster in Fukushima. Someone said "Fukushima
is like a parallel world." But it is another world.
From the outside, everything seems to look
normal. Outside the exclusion zone of 20km, life continues as before.But not quite. This is only an
appearance. The danger is invisible. In making this documentary, the filmmaker saw his challenge
as:how to make visible what is invisible. Interviews with the former governor of Fukushima, a
resident who returns, briefly, and others affected, help to tell the story of the Fukushima aftermath.

ROTTEN ROCK (PEDRA PODRE)
Brazil, 1990, 26 min, Directors: Eve
Lise Silva, Ligia Giro, Stela Grisotti
and Walter Behr, Documentary,
Portuguese with English subtitles
This is the first documentary made
about Brazil's nuclear power plants
Angra 1 and Angra 2, built in the
Atlantic Rainforest region in the
South of Rio de Janeiro by U.S.
Company Westinghouse and the German nuclear company Siemens/Kraftwerksunion. With irony it
shows that the official safety and evacuation plans to protect the local population and tourists in
case of a nuclear meltdown are just a joke. Even worse, Angra 1 and Angra 2 are constructed on a
beach, which the indigenous population calls Itaorna the Rotten Rock.
HIGH POWER
India, 2013, 27 min, Director
and Producer: Pradeep Indulkar
Documentary, Marathi &
English, English subtitles
Tarapur Nuclear Power Project is
India's first civil nuclear
establishment which started its
work around 50 years ago,
displacing villages near town
Tarapur. After 40 long years the
films protagonist visits those
villages - Dandi, Pofaran,
Ghivali, Unbhat and Tarapur. He
observes the situation of
thousands of displaced people. He finds that they lost their traditional jobs, their land and homes.
They did not get any proper compensation or the promised services and infrastructure such as
roads, water, electricity, medical facilities and schools. Instead they suffer from illnesses and
unknown diseases. Cases of high blood pressure and heart attacks have drastically increased.
Kidney failure, miscarriages, and impotency have increased among newly married couples.
Children under 5 years old are suffering from mental disorders. When the protagonist returns to his
home in the city he realizes that while he only pays the actual electricity bill for the power he uses,
the real cost of power is paid by the unknown and innocent people he just encountered.
