I hadn’t seen this until a few days ago. Amazing, horrifying film like nothing I’ve seen before. It is said to be the first film to deal directly and realistically with the idea of nuclear war and what it would mean.

Roger Ebert said this was “one of the most skillful documentary films ever made.”

I was excited to see it freely available (legally) on YouTube, so I wanted to share it with HN.

This can be obtained from "unofficial" channels. Looks interesting, will check it out. Not a documentary though.
