RADIOACTIVE: The Women of Three Mile Island, an
award-winning feature documentary about the 1979 Three Mile Island
meltdown--recounts the story of the worst commercial nuclear accident in U.S.
history.
RADIOACTIVE covers the never-before-told stories of four
intrepid homemakers, two lawyers who took the local community's case all the
way to the Supreme Court, and a young female journalist who was caught in the
radioactive crossfire.
RADIOACTIVE features activist and actor Jane Fonda – whose
film, CHINA SYNDROME (a fictional account of a nuclear meltdown), opened 12
days before the real disaster in Pennsylvania.
RADIOACTIVE also breaks the story of a radical new health
study (in process) that may finally expose the truth of the meltdown. For over
forty years, the nuclear industry has done all in their power to cover up their
criminal actions, claiming, as they always do, "No one was harmed and
nothing significant happened."
In this thrilling feminist documentary, indomitable women
fight back against the nuclear industry Goliath to expose one of the worst
cover-ups in U.S. history. (USA, 2023, 76 min., color, DCP | Dir. Heidi
Hutner)
