The Strangest Dream (2008) 1080p WEBRip-LAMA

This is the story of Joseph Rotblat, the only nuclear scientist to leave the Manhattan Project, the U.S. government's secret program to build the first atomic bomb. His was a decision based on moral grounds. The film retraces the history of nuclear weapons, from the first test in New Mexico, to Hiroshima, where we see survivors of the first atomic attack. Branded a traitor and spy, Rotblat went from designing atomic bombs to researching the medical uses of radiation. Together with Bertrand Russell he helped create the modern peace movement, and eventually won the Nobel Peace Prize. Featuring interviews with contemporaries of Rotblat and passionate public figures including Senator Romeo Dallaire, "The Strangest Dream" demonstrates the renewed threat of nuclear weapons and encourages hope through the example of morally engaged scientists and citizens.
