“The choices pro nuclear energy, which were made by a small number of people and will have consequences for millions of years, are irresponsible and arrogant. This is the reason why we not only document the Anti-nuclear protests, but also understand our pictures as a part of this protest”
What today is produced as nuclear waste in German nuclear power plants will be radioactive even in a million years – a secure storage for this long period of time cannot be possible. Therefore, the united population of Wendland is struggling for over 30 years against the storage of radioactive waste in front of their homes. Given the life-span extension for nuclear power plants, the project “www.inamillionyears.com” shall call attention to the problem of storage. Four well-known German photographers: Andreas Herzau, Christian Jungeblodt, Michael Meyborg and Daniel Rosenthal document the culture of protest and are on site, when the next CASTOR with radioactive waste in November 2010 rolls into the final storage Gorleben.
Directed by the movie maker Lukas Thiele, starting November 4th short multimedia movies with pictures of the three photographers will be daily presented on the homepage “www.inamillionyears.com”.
Among others, with the pictures from the archive of Michael Meyborg, who documented for more than 20 year the resistance in Wendland, a small chronicle of the resistance, lasting for more than 30 years, will be produced as multi-vision.
For this project we have prepared a trailer - free to use:
