Synopsis
In 1982, six rural American communities were targeted as potential nuclear waste sites, sparking fierce resistance from locals—farmers, activists, and Native Americans—fighting to protect their land, health, and heritage. As the government pursued Yucca Mountain on Western Shoshone land, personal stories emerged in stark contrast to bureaucratic logic, offering a poignant reflection on memory, stewardship, and the unresolved legacy of nuclear waste in America.
