Produced and Presented by The Commitee of Japenese Citizens to Send Photographic and Pictorial Record of the Atomic Bombing to the Children and All Human Beings of the World
This film was made possible through the efforts and contributions of tens of thousands of participants of the TEN-FEET Capmaign. It is a powerful telling of the horrendous disaster of the August 1945 nuclear bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki by the United States. Hundreds of thousands of people were killed and countless more died slowly of radiation. Only a few are still alive to tell the story.
In No More Hiroshima, No More Nagasaki, we meet remaining survivors of the world’s first and only nuclear war and hear their heart-wrenching stories. We watch images as the survivors describe in detail their personal experiences while on the very ground when the atomic bombs where dropped in the two cities. Survivors of the atomic attacks on Hiroshima and Nagasaki are known as Hibakusha. The only visual record of those first moments of horror on the ground is in the artwork created by Hibakusha. Almost nothing remains to show us the Hiroshima and Nagasaki that existed before the atomic bombs devastated their lives. Images of this artwork haunt the screen as we listen to the Hibakusha tell us their story how through survival comes the courage to live. And their message is the same; peace must prevail with the lessons learnt from this colossal human force of war and destruction.
