B is for Bomb

I firmly believe that, although it is a far cry from the binding broadcasting system John Grierson envisioned in 1939, the NFB of Canada has been and is involved in creating some of the best documentary films the world over.

South African documentary filmmaker Carey McKenzie's short film B is for Bomb (produced in U.S.A) was recently selected as the winner of the Cannes 2006 Online Film Competition. Narrated by a child, the film is an alphabetical listing of the hazards of nuclear power.

Having just returned from Hiroshima I found this film's message intelligible and intelligent. I encourage you to view it (for free!) if you have the time. The link is listed below.
