A Place For Film Interview - Atomic States of America

Heartland Film Festival Interview With Don Argott

In this interview, I'm talking to Atomic States Of America Director Don Argott. This documentary deals with the nuclear renaissance in America, and how the current regulatory environment affects new plants and existing plants.

The film talks to government officials, nuclear watchdog groups, protestors, and people who live near nuclear plants. It's a thought provoking film and well worth seeing at this year's Heartland Film Festival.

In the interview we discuss the origin of the film, the goal of the film, and Don's thoughts on nuclear power both before and after the film.
