Recent characterizations of nuclear power as a "renewable energy source" make this classic film an essential resource. Winner of the Grand Prize at the Sundance Film Festival and recipient of a national Emmy Award, Dark Circle reveals the full scope and human impact of the Atomic Age, from the dropping of the first atomic bombs on Japan to the present day perils of nuclear power and nuclear bomb assembly line and nuclear power. This updated version of the film weaves dramatic personal stories of nuclear victims with previously classified footage. Dark Circle follows the trail of plutonium from the Rocky Flats Nuclear Weapons facility in Colorado, to the Diablo Canyon Nuclear Power Plant in California, to Hiroshima and Nagasaki in Japan. Plutonium, the most toxic substance in the world, links these locations and the people whose lives are irrevocably changed by it.

This extraordinary undercover report from China exposes the suffering of thousands of Chinese whose lives have been destroyed by nuclear testing. It presents exclusive evidence from inside China of spiraling levels of cancer and birth deformities among the population of Xinjiang province - part of the Great Silk Road - which was opened to tourists in 1985. Up until 1996, China had carried out extensive nuclear tests in the Zinjiang province, which is in the northwest corner of China, bordering Kazakhstan. But Xinjiang is not unpopulated and isolated, as was Bikini Atoll. The filmmakers interviewed both victims and the doctors who are struggling to cope with their medical problems in the region's hospitals. The documentary reveals that the tests were carried out under highly dangerous conditions, which could have consequences beyond China's borders. High School Adult
