This groundbreaking, award-winning documentary explores the moment when India and Pakistan ushered in the new age of the nuclear bomb–and a new peace movement. Anand Patwardhan delves into this post-colonial moment of “nuclear nationalism” occurring 50 years (and three Indo-Pakistani wars) after India and Pakistan’s independence, at a time in which “pacifism has become known as the idea that failed.”
2002, India, 176 minutes. Directed by
