Countdown to Zero

2010 Documentary on Nuclear Weapons: Countdown to Zero

"Watching this film, I had a terrible image of Walker as a modern-day Cassandra warning the Trojans; humanity is not well equipped to deal with background-hum threats — just note the current head-in-the-sand response to the spread of Cesium-137 throughout Japan, or the inability to find consensus on actions to halt global warming. Just like the all-too-apparent threat of reactors built on fault lines, her clear warning will most likely be ignored until it is too late."

-Giovanni Fazio, The Japan Times 2011/09/09
