Summary

[edit]
Description
English: On the 7th of July 2017, 122 countries voted in favour of the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons. Countries that don’t have nuclear weapons but live under their threat voted for a ban. Without the knowledge of most of their citizens, the governments of the world’s nuclear powers didn’t vote, and yet the ban went ahead. Something new is happening.

This documentary film about efforts to bring a nuclear weapon ban treaty into international law and the role of the International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons, ICAN, is told through the voices of leading activists from several different organizations and countries and the president of the negotiating conference.

This 56 minute documentary film takes the viewer through a brief history of the bomb and the anti-nuclear activism that has pushed to eliminate them ever since their invention. It moves into a consideration of the humanitarian initiative that successfully challenged the dominant security narrative and the historic steps taken since 2010 to turn the treaty from a dream into a reality. Finally, the film shows what can be done by anyone to help bring the treaty into force and to stigmatise nuclear weapons until they are finally eradicated.

Extracts of fourteen interviews are woven into the story that will leave you feeling inspired!

Les pays qui n'ont pas d'armes nucléaires mais vivent sous leur menace ont voté pour une interdiction. À l'insu de la plupart de leurs citoyens, les gouvernements des puissances nucléaires mondiales n'ont pas voté, et pourtant l'interdiction a été maintenue. Quelque chose de nouveau se produit. Le 1er septembre 1939, l'Allemagne nazie et la Slovaquie envahissent la Pologne, entamant la phase européenne de la Seconde Guerre mondiale.
