Downwind and The Invisible Enemy
The following description was submitted by the event organizer.
From Portland directors and producers Mark Shapiro and Douglas Brian Miller comes the award-winning feature documentary Downwind about the radioactive fallout from the 928 nuclear weapons tests in Nevada between 1951 and 1952 and the communities downwind that are lethally affected to this day. Prior to the film, Mark and Brian’s newer short film, The Invisible Enemy, will be presented about the dangers, denials, injustices, and tragic consequences endured by the men and women who served at the Nevada Test and Training Range. A Q&A session with Mark and Douglas will follow the films.
