  • Watch Online / Hiroshima Bound (2014)



    Desc: Hiroshima Bound: Directed by Martin Lucas. Hiroshima Bound is a personal documentary about growing up in the shadow of the Atom Bomb, a film that follows the story of the bombing of Hiroshima through the history of specific photos and film footage taken, sometimes hidden, sometimes displayed over the intervening sixty years. The film interrogates those images through the life experiences of witnesses to the bombs effects, and follows the filmmaker from a 'duck-and-cover' childhood with parents involved with the US nuclear program to encounters with some of the remaining witnesses of the 1945 bombing. The film intertwines these two journeys to explore and unpack the trauma and myth surrounding the culture of Hiroshima representation in American memory.
