Monday, March 18th from 6 – 9:30 p.m. at AFS Cinema, 6259 Middle Fiskville Road, for the Uranium Film Festival’s first Austin event, a tour that will travel to 13 cities in two months.
The two award-winning films are especially relevant in Texas, where small modular nuclear reactors are now proposed and the fight to halt high-level radioactive waste dumping continues in the courts.
The films are Atomic Bamboozle: The False Promise of a Nuclear Renaissance (46 min.) & Downwind (95 min.). Atomic Bamboozle debunks the idea that nuclear energy should play a role in fixing the climate crisis. Downwind, with Michael Douglas & Martin Sheen, focuses on the toxic consequences of 928 nuclear detonations on American soil. Both films highlight impacts on Indigenous communities.
Also coming up soon: Disarming Toxic Empire is a free conference at U.T. Austin, March 21 – 22, focusing on the unjust aspects of nuclear testing, production, storage, and weaponry.
