Atomic: Living in Dread and Promise

Mark Cousins' bold documentary looks at death in the atomic age, but life too. Using only archive film and a musical score by the band Mogwai, Atomic shows us an impressionistic kaleidoscope of our nuclear times: protest marches, Cold War sabre rattling, Chernobyl and Fukishima, but also the sublime beauty of the atomic world, and how X Rays and MRI scans have improved human lives.
