I have been following the events after 3/11 2011 since watching it live as a kid. I remember watching the helicopter following the tsunami go further into the mainland carrying debris, fires, and peoples lives. I remember hearing news about the worst nuclear disaster since Chernobyl, but not one person my age could relate. After telling people of my upcoming trip. It appears most people younger than 25 whom asked me while I was here think this was the result of the nuclear bombing of world war II. I couldn't believe at how little people knew of this event. After that, I decided to make this documentary. So many lives were affected, many took their own lives as a result of the evacuation. It was an incredible tragedy. I feel this suffering has been largely forgotten by the west. Can you imagine having to start from scratch? meanwhile knowing, for years, the things you held dear, aren't even destroyed, they're just rotting away behind a fence surrounded by guards. I don't think these people will ever get their items back. That being said, I decided to film the insides of these places to show the true level of devastation. The inside of a building here shows what people were doing just minutes after it all went wrong, not much has changed. It's a true time capsule to the events that unfolded. As the years go by, these buildings don't have much time left, and soon the physical representation of this disaster will be lost to time, in large forever forgotten. We may very well be the last to explore the Fukushima disaster zone, as security was nearly impossible to outsmart. After this footage comes out, I know that it probably will be impossible. Since the first explorers came here years ago, I have wanted to cover this event. And thanks to all of you, I was finally able to come here myself. More to come
