Dark Circle reveals the full scope and human impact of the Atomic Age, from the dropping of the first atomic bombs on Japan to the present day perils of the hydrogen bomb assembly line and nuclear power.

This updated version of the Emmy Award-winning film weaves dramatic personal stories of nuclear victims with previously classified footage. Even with the end of the Cold War, Dark Circle is more relevant than ever: more nuclear weapons are being developed in the U.S., nuclear power is re-emerging, and the capability to build atomic bombs is spreading to other countries.
