As the title indicates, the film puts the
arms race into perspective both from an
historical and a present point of view:
American industry backed Nazi Germany and now is making profits from the current preparation for war.

Joan Harvey has created a powerful
plea for our peace and sanity in the
world, that cannot be overlooked. The
film is concerned with the impact of
nuclear pollution on people who work
and live near nuclear arms factories, as
well as the effects on the total environment.

Interviews, including victims of the
nuclear industry, give a grim and frightening picture, and with its exhaustive
and detailed background research, the
film is a revelation for even the most informed.
