We have an historic opportunity to catalyze public awareness and take action to
reduce the nuclear threat. Through the power of film, Countdown to Zero (watch
the trailer) highlights the global nuclear threat and spells out, in chilling
terms, the danger facing everyone if nuclear weapons end up in the hands of
terrorists or explode by accident. The film conveys a powerful message: no
country should have nuclear weapons. It opens this week and in the coming weeks
in theaters across the country (see dates and cities), coinciding with a major
policy opportunity to reduce the nuclear threat – the push to ratify the
Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty (START) in the Senate.
The film premiered in January at the Sundance Film Festival, was a hit at the
TED Conference and made a splash at the Cannes Film Festival. Produced by
Lawrence Bender (producer of Academy Award-winning films An Inconvenient Truth
and Inglourious Basterds), and co-financed by Participant Media and,
Ploughshares Fund grantee, World Security Institute.
Watch the trailer, see the movie, take your friends and spread the word.
Take Part: Go to www.takepart.com/zero to urge your Senator to ratify START
which will remove significant numbers of weapons from U.S. and Russian
arsenals. This is the first step in moving towards a world without nuclear
weapons. Also, sign a petition demanding zero nuclear weapons.
As Queen Noor of Jordan stated during her appearance on Good Morning America
with George Stephanopoulos, "This is the biggest public movement, the biggest
public awareness campaign since the 1980's" Nuclear Freeze movement. Please
join us by watching the film and taking action.
“...it’s a rare piece of political film making that could trigger; and unite,
the reflexes of both the left and right. It makes getting rid of nuclear
weapons look less like a ‘cause’ than an imperative.” - Entertainment Weekly
