Sun, Aug 03Seven needlesThis film depicts how Oppenheimer, head of the Manhattan Project, was united with the goddesses of fame and glory, which led him to complete the atomic bomb. He became the "father" of children born in the atomic bombed-out cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, due to the radioactive power of heat rays and radiation. But what did Oppenheimer actually create? He never approached these children or listened to their voices. The era of scholars who could enjoy the innocent joy of discovery is over. The path of discovery from now on will be one in which we must constantly confront our own consciences. This film depicts, in a poetic and philosophical way, what does intelligence bring to the natural world and human society?
