'Atomic Gods' is a black-comedy, pseudo-documentary film that reveals for the first time the secret, unknown (and perhaps even forbidden), 'Creation Myths of the Bomb'. It centers on the story of J. Robert Oppenheimer and the birth of the Atomic Bomb; and also features God (in a special guest appearance), Adam and Eve, Prometheus, King Kong, Charleton Heston, and Moby Dick. The film also reveals newly discovered footage of the 'Atomic Gods' themselves in a daring prison escape from Alcatraz, navigating a dream world between fact and myth; real and unreal; the surreal, and the hyperreal. The film also uses extensive, extremely rare, previously unseen, and newly declassified, "Actual Footage." A biting satire that is at once both historical and futuristic, this dark and hilarious story serves as a post-nuclear fairy tale.
56 minutes TRT.
Produced, Written, and Directed by Adam Jonas Horowitz, Producer/Director of the award-winning PBS documentary film, "Nuclear Savage: The Islands of Secret Project 4.1'
