The most nuclearized territory on the planet, La Hague, serves as an ideal location to examine the impact of the nuclear industry, a national specialty. At a time when transparency is mandated by law, the film reveals the challenges of implementing it. The reflections of Greenpeace and ACRO (the Association for the Control of Radioactivity in the West) contrast sharply with the highly controlled language of communication departments. How can the risks of accidents, environmental impact, and health consequences be assessed? Is the reprocessing of waste or the construction of an EPR justified? A scientist candidly addresses these fundamental questions posed by middle school students.
