Nuclear Forever

Nuclear power used to be seen as the energy of the future before Fukushima. One accident changed the mind of the world’s biggest players in energy production. While many countries still consider nuclear power necessary, Germany decided to turn away from it. How do you implement such a decision? This case study deals with the hardships of shutting down a nuclear power plant. The glance into its heart is accompanied by the relevant context—experts agree to disagree on the approach to power, and residents of a small village complain about losing their landmark. The question is self-evident—what is more important, the risk of an accident or the need to satisfy our energy requirements? (Academia Film Olomouc)
