First screening of “Radioactive: The Women of Three Mile Island”

Montreal for a World BEYOND War 6 Feb 24

Montreal for a World BEYOND War and CCNR are pleased to announce the screening of Radioactive: The Women of Three Mile Island, at Cinema du Parc Montreal, on March 28th 2024. 

We have chosen to screen this new documentary, a first in Montreal, because it so compellingly examines nuclear energy through the intersectional lenses of Environmental justice; Peace activism; and Feminism and reproductive rights. The film tells the story of the meltdown of the Three Mile Island nuclear reactor, and the women who were affected by it and who struggled to bring the truth to light. Here in Quebec, this film is required viewing in light of the COP28 announcement about tripling nuclear production, and the threat of the re-opening of Gentilly II nuclear reactor. This is a US-made film that is unfortunately available only in English for now (VOA). 

The film will be screening in Montreal for one day only! There will be a Q&A discussion after the film, at 8:30, with Gordon Edwards of CCNR, Cym Gomery of World BEYOND War and Robert Del Tredici, photographer and author of The People of Three Mile Island.
