Pandora's PromiseIn the next few decades, humankind will need to double, or even triple energy production as billions of people in the developing world lift themselves out of poverty and begin to live modern lives. Unless the source of this new energy is clean and non-CO2 emitting, the risk of triggering a devastating global climate catastrophe is all but certain. The magnitude of this dilemma, and the limitations of commonly proposed solutions, have left the mainstream environmental movement teetering between apocalyptic thinking and utter disarray. Plunging headfirst into this challenge comes PANDORA'S PROMISE, the highly anticipated and debated new film by acclaimed documentary filmmaker Robert Stone that recently premiered at the Sundance Film Festival. Three years in the making and filmed on four continents, this meticulously researched and beautifully crafted film asks whether the most viable option we have to tackle climate change might be the one technology we fear the most: nuclear power.

Review For Pandora's Promise | |
| You need to make an argument. A parade of like-minded nuclear-power advocates who assure us that everything will be all right just doesn't cut it. Manohla Dargis-New York Times Alas, its argument against fear-driven orthodoxy is undercut by the fact that, as with so many of this subgenre's entrants, there are no substantial competing voices included in the mix ... Nick Schager-Village Voice In its attempts to debunk the feasibility of massive energy reduction, Pandora's Promise at least brings some measure of rhetorical skill to its arguments. Andrew Schenker-Time Out New York Most issue docs are propaganda, and Robert Stone's latest is a formidable sales pitch for nukes, yet the film's points are well reasoned and urgent. John Anderson-Variety A one-sided argument to a debate worth revisiting. Roger Moore-McClatchy-Tribune News Service Rethinking Nuclear Energy Jean Lowerison-ReviewExpress.com | |
