SYNOPSIS

Citizen detectives dare to begin a journey to meet the “Nuclear Mafia.”

DIRECTING INTENTION

I have been making documentary films about nuclear victims and nuclear industry. Since the 2011 Fukushima disaster, I became curious about those who lead the nuclear industry. So with nine citizen detectives I planned a daring journey to find out who the nuclear mafia is.
We tried to deliver our message to the nuclear mafia in the midst of many happenings, but the walls surrounding the cartel of the nuclear industry was high and stiff. Just when we thought we were pushed aside to the margin of an unfair field, however, we recoup our courage from the encounters with real detectives who have been fighting against nuclear issues in their own spaces. Nuclear-free is possible and the road is not far.
