Ten years after the nuclear disaster, almost no one in Japan talks about Fukushima anymore. The Summer Olympics are planned in Tokyo, and the country wants to show itself from its best side. But radiation levels are still too high in many places, the problems surrounding the dismantling of the destroyed reactors remain unsolved, and many resettled people do not want to return to the contaminated area.
In SILENT FUKUSHIMA, Swiss-Japanese director Aya Domenig portrays five Japanese artists who, despite great resistance in their own country, criticize the government's downplaying tactics and fight against oblivion. The film raises questions about the relationship between citizen and state, between art and politics, and about the responsibility we bear towards future generations.
