    Synopsis

    Documenting the landscapes that emerge after 50 years of uranium mining in former GDR territory, traces of its human and non-human inhabitants are found. How does life continue in a contaminated region? We delve into a ground enriched with stories of brownfield redevelopment, ecological activism, family legends, fragile ecosystems and a punk festival. This poetic experimental documentary ties stories of a radioactive past, present and future to a critical staging of authenticity and extraction.
