Retour à Fukushima

Incoming Editorial·Reviewed May 27, 2026

More than a decade after the accident, the region, still heavily contaminated, has seen the emergence of these concrete neighborhoods, enclosed in the midst of wild, radioactive nature. This film paints an intimate portrait of the people who live there and offers a poetic reflection on the region.
