- Summary:
- Atomic Cover-up is the first documentary to explore the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki from the unique perspective -- words and startling images -- of the cameramen who risked their lives filming in the irradiated aftermath. It reveals how this historic footage -- created by a Japanese newsreel crew and then an elite U.S. Army team-- was seized, classified top secret, and then buried by American officials for decades to hide the full human costs of the bombings as a costly nuclear arms race raged.
