SYNOPSIS
While the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki demonstrated that a single atomic bomb could cause widespread devastation, the invention of thermonuclear weapons a few years later made the terrifying prospect of humanity being wiped out by an apocalyptic war plausible. From the early 1950s to the present day, a whole series of films reveals this fear that haunts our imagination.
