Hiroshima

It was the defining moment of the 20th Century - the scientific,
technological, military, and political gamble of the world's first
atomic attack. This drama-documentary attempts to do what no other
film has done before - to show what it is like to live through a
nuclear explosion, millisecond by millisecond.

Set in the three weeks from the first test explosion in New Mexico to
the eventual dropping of the bomb, the action takes viewers into the
room where the crucial political decisions are made; on board the
Enola Gay on her fateful voyage; inside the bomb as it explodes;
and on the streets of Hiroshima when disaster strikes. Parallel storylines
interweave, unfolding the action from both US and Japanese perspectives,
and revealing the tensions and conflicts in the actions and minds of
people who were making history. Special effects recreate the reality of
the mission - even going inside the workings of the bomb - and archive
film replays the horrific aftermath.
