  • Would have been nice to learn more about the scientists lives outside work - e.g. what is it like living in the Zone

  • Kind of long, but what a great story. I was totally taken in by this. The sound track was really haunting and worked well. I liked the transition from old footage to new with the focus on the ferris wheel. Also, I can't believe those guys ate the animals out there. Great work. GL.

  • Very interesting, though yes, a little long.

  • GL. this is very powerful and haunting. A strong case for not even thinking about nuclear energy for a suatainable future. If you get a chance, please take a look at our pod on Solar Energy > link

  • Topic is great - characters subtle & engaging and yes the music is good too. Good to see films of 'the outside world'... Keep it up!

  • Fascinating video! A very personal slant on this topic. I don't think the video was too long... In fact, I would have liked to see more. Excellent work. Thanks!

  • Never expected to meet The Stalker. A twisted pleasure.

    Tarkovsky-style news, who'd have thought...

    It wasn't too long. Neither is radioactivity. Shame the world has gone ADD. More of this please.

  • A brilliant story well-told. Perhaps a bit long for Current but I liked it all the same. GL

  • I love this- the charaxters are priceless and a brilliant way to get into what is, essentially, on old story now. Felt like I was watching a Jim Jarmusch film. At 15 mins it IS double the length of the Current TV format but a clever edit would sort this out-- great stuff.

  • this could be a lot shorter, but it's nontheless fascinating - you show us a world in which so few would dare to tread. if this hadn't already been picked, i'd give it a greenlight, but as it has i just felt compelled to comment anyway!

  • Amazing pod. The story provide the viewer an updated environment in the dealth zone. It remind us to start looking for alternative energy faster than we can imagine.
