- Description:
- This film by Paul Jacobs, a reporter, looks at the effects that nuclear testing had on unsuspecting Americans and how the Federal government actively hid the dangers of these tests and lied to the American public about it. He interviews residents, former soldiers, and other in order to uncover just how widespread the radiation poisoning was. His reporting shines a light on a little known aspect of American history, showing how hundreds of thousands of Americans were made sick or killed from nuclear fallout.
