This film tells the story of the Bikinian people, the U.S. nuclear testing, and also has some of the best underwater footage ever shot of the USS Saratoga aircraft carrier, and the Japanese Flagship, the Nagato, Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto's floating fortress from where he launched the attack on Pearl Harbor in WWII.

The New York Film Festival's Best Documentary and Gold Medal winner in the History and Society category.
In 1946, the United States ordered the 167 inhabitants of Bikini, a coral reef in the Marshall Islands of Micronesia, to evacuate their ancestral home. The US government had chosen Bikini as the test site to measure the devastation of an atomic bomb explosion.

Nearly half a century after the atomic bomb test that made Bikini Island dangerous, the vegetation is still poisonous. A team of divers explore the awesome aircraft carrier wrecks nearby and the exiled Bikini Islanders return for a poignant look at paradise lost.
