Nuclear Nation: The Fukushima Refugees Story is a subtle documentary that shows rather than tells. Don’t expect the Frontline format. Nuclear Nation: The Fukushima Refugees Story was made by a Japanese filmmaker so don’t expect subtitles, but I don’t think that should be a deterrent for viewers. Nuclear Nation: The Fukushima Refugees Story is a narratively linear story that starts after the disaster and is organized seasonally. In contrast to the US, both the Japanese government authorities and private interests, The Tokyo Electric Power Company, i.e. TEPCO, are effusively apologetic and seemingly expose themselves to castigation from those harmed by the disaster, but as Nuclear Nation: The Fukushima Refugees Story unfolds, you notice the officials running from the room before criticism is levied or rushing through the castigation like a politician at a reception line. Nuclear Nation: The Fukushima Refugees Story primarily focuses on the disruption to people’s daily routine and stories of personal loss, but as the former mayor of Fukushima reveals his regret at the town’s monumental sacrifice for short term prosperity and Tokyo’s electricity, the betrayal of the promise of nuclear energy acts as a warning to others before entering the same Faustian bargain. Nuclear Nation: The Fukushima Refugees Story is a must see and a real life The Bay.
