"Fukushima, Never
Again" tells the story of the Fukushima nuclear plant meltdowns in north
east Japan in March of 2011 and exposes the cover-up by Tepco and the Japanese
government.
This is the first film that interviews the Mothers Of Fukushima, nuclear power experts and trade unionists who are fighting for justice and the protection of the children and the people of Japan and the world. The residents and citizens were forced to buy their own geiger counters and radiation dosimeters in order to test their communities to find out if they were in danger.

It also relays how the nuclear
energy program for "peaceful atoms" was brought to Japan under the
auspices of the US military occupation and also the criminal cover-up of the
safety dangers of the plant by TEPCO and GE management which built the plant in
Fukushima.
“Under the occupation by American
army, many of top leaderships in Japan were ending up in the Sugamo Prison in Tokyo. One of
whom was Matsutarou Shoriki who became first nuclear energy promoter. He was a Vietnam anti communist. In the atmosphere of communism during MacArthur
era, anybody with credential as anti-communist was elevated and given the
position of the authority. He got a first
commercial TV license in Japan. First of
his TV campaign was Eisenhower’s “Atom of peace”, promoting nuclear power stations
in Japan.”
It also interviews Kei Sugaoka,
the GE nulcear plant inspector from the bay area who exposed cover-ups in the
safety at the Fukushima plant and was retaliated against by GE. This
documentary allows the voices of the people and workers to speak out about the
reality of the disaster and what this means not only for the people of Japan
but the people of the world as the US government and nuclear industry continue
to push for more new plants and government subsidies. This film breaks the
information blockade story line of the corporate media in Japan, the US and
around the world that Fukushima is over.
Also I would like to note Mr. Soetsu
Abe, anti nuclear activist’s word:
“By our struggle and fight, it will teach the next generation how human
beings are supposed to be.”
