Not sure who recommended it to me, but IMDB says its about "[t]he effects of a nuclear holocaust on the working class city of Sheffield, England and the eventual long-term effects of nuclear war on civilization." Didn't have a lot of motivation to seek it out, but it has great ratings. Top review says "Very few films have the ability to suck the life out of a viewer and leave them feeling drained and shaken in quite the same way that this does." Yeah, so I'm not sure if I will ever be in the mood for that to be honest.
it's on youtube
imagine Shakespeare tragedy where everyone dies but as a narrated documentary. it's freaking depressing...
as a brit raised on US apocalyptic films, it was genuinely jarring to see what looked like my home town undergoing a nuclear war in a realistic fashion.
Normally I watch these films and think "oh those poor people", but this was the first I thought something else.
