Countdown To Zero DVD

COUNTDOWN TO ZERO traces the history of the atomic bomb from it's origins to the present state of global affairs: nine nations possessing nuclear weapons capabilities with others racing to join them, with the world held in a delicate balance that could be shattered by an act of terrorism, failed diplomacy, or a simple accident. Written and directed by acclaimed documentarian Lucy Walker, the film features an array of important international statesmen, including President Jimmy Carter, Mikhail Gorachev, Pervez Musharraf and Tony Blair. It makes a compelling case for worldwide nuclear disarmament, an issue more topical than ever with the Obama administration working to revive this goal today. The film produced by Academy Award winner and current nominee Lawrence Bender and developed, financed and executive produced by Participant Media, together with World Security Institute.
