Building Bombs

0 hrs 54 mins

It is one of the most volatile nuclear arms controversies in America's history: the mismanagement of the U.S. Department of Energy's Savannah River Plant outside Aiken, South Carolina--mismanagement which has produced numerous reactor accidents, a general deterioration of the aging facility's cooling system, and the threat of nuclear waste to the area's drinking water. BUILDING BOMBS, the product of five years of research and filmed interviews by Atlanta filmmakers Mark Mori and Susan Robinson, is the first in-depth look at the social, emotional and moral impact of the nation's largest nuclear weapons manufacturing facility on the people of Aiken, South Carolina. But BUILDING BOMBS is more than just the facts--horrifying as they are. It is a powerful story of individuals whose lives and livelihoods were wed to the Savannah River Plant and of how those individuals faced complex personal and professional choices with touching courage and dignity.

Dali's Greatest Secret

1 hr 8 mins

The story of artist Salvador Dali and Vision of Hell, a painting that was hidden under a nun's bed for 30 years yet had a profound effect on the life and work of Dali. Vision of Hell was a painting of one of the religious visions seen by three children in Fatima, Portugal in 1917. Dali was commissioned to work on this painting during a period in his life when he was deeply concerned about his mortality, so much so that he obsessed about death and openly mused about hopes for immortality. He began to study the possibility of being cloned and even considered being frozen in hopes of being resurrected decades later as a means of achieving some form of immortality. As he worked on Vision of Hell, the master found himself being pulled back to his religious roots. He returned to the Catholic Church, keeping it secret from those in his inner circle, and introduced substantially more religious themes into his work, producing four times more religious work after painting Vision of Hell. Yet the master hid his new found devotion from many close to him for fear of losing his intellectual and anti-church reputation. As much as anything, it is about the master's dreams of everlasting life and his attempts to achieve it in any way possible. It is an untold story that significantly changes the biography of Salvador Dali.
