Abstract

In 2016, I attended a screening of the documentary Nobody Told Us Anything, directed by Charles Stewart (2014). The documentary tells the stories of the men and women who participated in the British Nuclear Weapons Tests that took place between 1952 and 1967. Through interviews with veterans and their families, combined with archive footage, the film raises awareness of the physical impacts of the tests and the ethical questions surrounding them.
