Half-Life of Memory America's Forgotten Atomic Bomb Factory Documentary Movie Trailer HD - Plot synopsis: In the suburbs of Denver, Colorado, the U.S. government manufactured thousands of atomic weapons, leaving behind a toxic legacy that will persist for generations.​​ The Rocky Flats plant (Wikipedia) produced a staggering 70,000 atomic bombs, each serving as a “trigger” for thermonuclear warheads. Shrouded in government secrecy, the plant's fires, leaks, and illicit dumping of nuclear waste contaminated the Denver area with long-lived radioactive toxins. ​A major — and highly visible — plutonium fire sparked a decade of mass protests, culminating in an unprecedented FBI raid that ultimately shuttered the plant. Through powerful testimonials and extraordinary archival media, the documentary film Half-Life of Memory exposes Rocky Flats's dark past and enduring impact, prompting critical reflection on the implications of the nation’s renewed nuclear weapons buildup and ongoing construction of another new "trigger" factory.
