White Light/Black Rain: The Destruction of Hiroshima and Nagasaki (2007)

Amid escalating global tensions, the once unimaginable specter of nuclear war has transformed into a chilling reality. Drawing on the poignant recollections of survivors who experienced the atomic devastation that razed two Japanese cities in 1945, this film offers a profoundly touching exploration into the enduring impact of humanity's initial—and hopefully final—employment of nuclear weapons in warfare. Helmed by Academy Award-winning director Steven Okazaki (known for 1990's 'Days of Waiting'), 'White Light, Black Rain' delivers an all-encompassing and emotive portrayal of the Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombings. It does so through the distinct perspectives of individuals present during those moments, encompassing both Japanese and American viewpoints.
