Finanziato dalla BBC, questo controverso e sconvolgente docudramma che immagina un attacco nucleare nella contea del Kent, in Gran Bretagna, a seguito dell\u2019escalation di un conflitto tra Est e Ovest, non fu trasmesso in televisione per vent\u2019anni. Fu invece distribuito con riluttanza nelle sale cinematografiche, ottenendo un enorme successo di critica a livello internazionale e vincendo numerosi premi, tra cui un Oscar. Basato su dati relativi ai bombardamenti di Dresda, Berlino, Tokyo e alle esplosioni atomiche di Hiroshima e Nagasaki, il film di Watkins, realizzato con un budget ridotto e interamente girato in esterni, persegue \u2013 e terrificantemente raggiunge \u2013 un realismo convincente e implacabile.<\/p>\n

Funded by the BBC, this controversial and harrowing docudrama depicting a hypothetical nuclear attack on the county of Kent in Great Britain following the escalation of an East-West conflict wasn\u2019t shown on television for 20 years. Instead it was reluctantly given a theatrical release and garnered huge critical praise internationally, winning a number of prizes, including an Academy Award. Based on data from the air attacks on Dresden, Berlin, Tokyo and the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Watkins\u2019 low-budget worst-case-scenario was shot entirely on location and strives for, and horrifyingly achieves, a convincing and unflinching realism.<\/p>\n
