剧情简介

一部关于全球核武器探索的纪录片。

COUNTDOWN TO ZERO traces the history of the atomic bomb from its 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 Devil’s Playground, Blindsight), the film features an array of important international statesmen, including President Jimmy Carter, Mikhail Gorbachev, 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 was produced by Academy Award® winner and current nominee Lawrence Bender (Inglourious Basterds, An Inconvenient Truth) and developed, financed and executive produced by Participant Media, together with World Security Institute. Participant collaborated with Magnolia on last year’s Food, Inc., recently nominated for an Academy Award®, and the upcoming CASINO JACK and the United States of Money. Jeff Skoll, Diane Weyermann, Bruce Blair and Matt Brown are the film’s executive producers.

我们将会看到的是一次借助影像的手段、在追踪原子弹的发展历史中所展示出来的最为真实的姿态，从它的起源到目前全球的形式——现在有9个国家拥有核武器，更别提还有更多的国家正在争先恐后地想要加入进来……如此看来，维持着整个世界的微妙的平衡关系的局势，很有可能会因为一次恐怖主义袭击、失败的外交政策或简单的意外事故，而彻底地被打破。

由在纪录片领域里倍受赞誉的电影人露西·沃克（Lucy Walker）编剧并执导，她特别将镜头对焦在了许多在国际政治领域非常有发言权的政客身上，包括美国的第39任总统吉米·卡特（Jimmy Carter）、前苏联国家领导人米哈伊尔·戈尔巴乔夫（Mikhail Gorbachev）、巴基斯坦前总统佩尔韦兹·穆沙拉夫（Pervez Musharraf）和前英国首相托尼·布莱尔（Tony Blair），并由此引申出了一个拥有着无与伦比的关注度的事件，针对的就是全世界范围内的核裁军——在以美国第44任总统奥巴马为首的政权体系不断地尝试着想要重新实现这一目标的过程中，也使得这个话题受到了前所未有的关注。
