AUSTRALIAN ATOMIC CONFESSIONS

In this disturbing documentary, Australian servicemen and nomadic aboriginals reveal the devastating effects of British atomic weapons testing carried out in Australia in the 1950s. For the first time, members of the Royal Australian Army, Navy, and Air force describe former top secret aspects of those tests. With the use of rare archival film and photographs, as well as eyewitness accounts, Australian Atomic Confessions chronicles the hidden history of these tests and also exposes previously unknown government cover-ups. The film also contends that the consequences of nuclear testing imposed on the Australian people and land are not just skeletons of the distant past. Sydney’s new nuclear reactor continues to pose a threat to the environment and civilians, and the problem of removing and disposing of the old nuclear reactor remains an unanswered question posed by politicians and leading environmentalists. Prominent aboriginal elders also warn that an imminent catastrophe may occur in Central Australia as a result of two uranium mines. Australian Atomic Confessions is a chilling expose of nuclear testing and its damaging legacy, one that continues to this day.
