"Little Voices from Fukushima" including discussion with film director Hitomi Kamanaka and Julius Weitzdörfer from our project team

Fukushima has become a symbol for risks and dangers of nuclear energy like Chernobyl. Film director Hitomi KAMANAKA focuses on the parallels between the two catastrophes and their consequences when visiting the affected regions in Japan and Belarus. This film gives voice to the mothers and children, who engage, inform and try to protect their families.


This film is part of the Wednesday Film Series within the IZO’s research project “Protecting the Weak. Entangled Processes of Framing, Institutionalization and Mobilization in East Asia” funded by the Volkswagen Foundation.
