Fukushima and the Bat

Fukushima and the Bat

After the nuclear catastrophe in Fukushima, the German government decided to decommission all nuclear power plants in the country, gradually. Instead, alternative energy sources like wind power are extremely promoted and subsidized. The film takes a deeper look at the implications of the German "Energiewende" (energy transition) by examining the controversy over wind farms in the forests of Central Germany.
