Building Bombs
Director: Susan J. Robinson , Mark Mori
Year: 1989
Plot: It is one of the most volatile nuclear arms controversies in America's history: the mismanagement of the U.S. Department of Energy's Savannah River Plant outside Aiken, South Carolina--mismanagement which has produced numerous reactor accidents, a general deterioration of the aging facility's cooling system, and the threat of nuclear waste to the area's drinking water. BUILDING BOMBS, the product of five years of research and filmed interviews by Atlanta filmmakers Mark Mori and Susan Robinson, is the first in-depth look at the social, emotional and moral impact of the nation's largest nuclear weapons manufacturing facility on the people of Aiken, South Carolina. But BUILDING BOMBS is more than just the facts--horrifying as they are. It is a powerful story of individuals whose lives and livelihoods were wed to the Savannah River Plant and of how those individuals faced complex personal and professional choices with touching courage and dignity.—Atlanta Film Society
