Justin Pemberton, Director
As part of THE GREEN, Sundance Channel presents a series of documentary films focusing on timely and pressing environmental issues of the day.
With carbon-based fuels becoming more expensive and the world witnessing increasing evidence of global warming, many are now calling a nuclear energy renaissance the only clean alternative. New Zealand filmmaker Justin Pemberton, whose country has never housed a nuclear power plant, conducts a worldwide investigation of the pros and cons of going nuclear. Searching for answers, Pemberton was granted rare access to power plants and a uranium mine, and visits England's notorious Sellafield and Chernobyl in the Ukraine.
