We are shown some highly deformed pigs
A man in shown with blood on his face during a protest
Skin subject to radiation is shown in graphic detail
Deformed babies are shown, as well as babies born with blue patches of skin after the mother was subject to radiation

Frightening & Intense Scenes

Severe
6 of 7 found this severe
Some voice over descriptions are unsettling
This is not a documentary for the faint of heart, or those with weak stomachs. Animals, adults and babies are shown highly deformed and wounded from the radiation.
Animal lovers may be saddened by the fact that people had left their pets at home whilst they evacuated. (thinking they would be back very soon)
The archival footage is incredibly revealing, and can be hard to watch at times.
Footage of a helicopter, which hits a cable and is brought down, is shown. Voice over describes the pilots as having been burned alive.
Many scenes are very stressful as we witness people risking their lives at the plant.
The main mood of this film is very bleak and intense
