Uranium Film FestivalThe International Uranium Film Festival is dedicated to all films (movies, documentaries, animated films, image films, art, fiction and non-fiction) about any nuclear issue: uranium mining, nuclear power plants, nuclear accidents, atomic bombs, nuclear waste, radioactive risks: From Hiroshima to Fukushima. It is an annual and global film festival with travelling festivals in other countries and cities. The best and most important films of the year receive the festival Award or a Special Recognition. The Uranium Film Festival Award is a piece of art created by Brazilian waste-material-artist Getúlio Damado, who lives and works in the famous artist quarter Santa Teresa in Rio de Janeiro. Getúlio uses waste material that he finds in the streets of Santa Teresa and old, broken watches to remember the first atomic bomb dropped over Hiroshima. Watches in Hiroshima stopped exactly at 8:15 in the morning when the A-bomb exploded on August 6th, 1945. Movie Star Karine Vanasse at Uranium Film Festival 2015Rio de Janeiro/Quebec 14/05/2015 - The International Uranium Film Festival thanks Canadian movie star Karine Vanasse for her support and presence at the opening of the festival in Quebec City, April 2015. "We are very honoured to have stars like Karine Vanasse or like the famous Indian actress Amala Akkineni from Hyderabad on our side", says the Festival´s executive director Marcia Gomes de Oliveira. The question of nuclear power is an important but also at the same time a complicated and difficult issue. "Stars are important to communicate the message of the International Uranium Film Festival and to stimulate the open discussion about nuclear power in our societies."
