Today, Japan dumped nuclear waste into the sea and "discussed" it with you. It is really polite. It turns out that there is a precedent - Minamata disease.
Is this film a documentary about a real scandal or the autobiography of photographer Eugene? Maybe both. A decadent but full of justice American, with the help of a group of poor Japanese who had no way to save themselves, finally succeeded in saving the poor Japanese who had been bullied and mutilated by the rich Japanese and the Japanese government for many years. This story is true. Although it is a pity that these poor Japanese and their descendants are still not free from misery, although the government announced in 2013 that they are no longer suffering, which is also true.
Since human beings have mastered "modern science and technology", financial capital, economic development... these things, we have begun to ruthlessly destroy and plunder the natural environment on which we live, the land, water and air that nurtures us. Even those companies (individuals) who have made huge profits "do their best" to devote themselves to the cause of environmental protection are undoubtedly a drop in the bucket. Every destruction caused by human beings is absolutely irreversible, and it is only a matter of time how long it will be over. Even today, which seems to have been "deeply introspected", the speed of our recovery is still far behind the speed of destruction and the acceleration of fission caused by past damage. This is the driving force of human greed, and this is the beast cultivated by human beings - capital, the nature of devouring everything. Think about the e-commerce that you and I can't live without, because we have dispensable needs, how many trees do we need to cut down for our paper packaging paper products? This is considered when no one places an order, sad! I also have to blame myself. No technology company, chemical company, mining company...is innocent; of course, every little of us is not an innocent snowflake.
This kind of film can be watched together with "2012" and "The Day After Tomorrow". If any heart is touched in a small way, it may also be a blessing for the earth!
