Welcome to Fukushima plot

A year in the daily life of some Japanese families in Minamisoma, who live 20 km from the damaged Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant. After attempts are made to clean up the environment, scientific uncertainties follow. The government shows little decisiveness and the residents wonder who they can trust. Should they stay or is it better to leave? Each family must decide for itself what to do and face the consequences. The director tells what happened after the disaster, so that the children will be able to remember it later.
