THIS EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELED. IT’S POSSIBLE IT WILL BE RESCHEDULED AT SOME POINT TBD.

Nuclear Savage is a heartbreaking and intimate ethnographic portrait of Pacific Islanders struggling for dignity and survival after of decades of intentional radiation poisoning at the hands of the American government. Relying on recently declassified U.S. government documents and devastating survivor testimony, this true, untold detective story reveals how U.S. scientists turned a Pacific paradise into a radioactive hell, using Marshall Islanders as human guinea pigs for three decades in order to study the effects of nuclear fallout on human beings.  Nuclear Savage is a shocking tale that pierces the heart of our democratic principles.
