Narrated by Alec Baldwin, this documentary is by a Japanese director about the world's biggest environmental problem! The U.S. government dropped 101 atomic bombs on the American continent as an experiment, resulting in radioactive contamination of the continent. As a result, in the 1960s, milk was contaminated with radiation and children were exposed to radiation. Women stood up and proved that their children were exposed to radiation. As a result, President Kennedy declared a halt to atmospheric nuclear testing. Radiation contamination seemed to be over.
