Telling the story of the Bikinians’ displacement and the Seppo nuclear tests in their native atoll. It’s a PBS documentary, and the director is evidently not really a commie, so I’m not sure how good it’s going to be — and online reviews give me mixed signals, too — but I remember enjoying this documentary if nothing else, so I’d like to revisit it in the wake of Recent Events.

Make sure you have a Hexbear account.
Oh, on this note, there’s a documentary I’ve wanted to see for a long time called “The Weight of Chains” that’s also about the fall of Yugoslavia and western actions that caused it. No idea if it’s good or not.
If it brings up Western actions at all I’m willing to say it’s probably good.
I think both of those I mentioned are on youtube
Hmm, the Wikipedia article for The Weight of Chains says that the movie basically presents the Srebrenica massacre as Bosniaks killing their own in order to justify NATO intervention in Serbia. This seems really wee-woo and distasteful to me.
Ah D: I haven’t seen it honestly, and wasn’t aware of that. Probably best to skip it in that case.
