From Kief Davidson, Director & Executive Producer
“I believe the lessons of MELTDOWN resonate far beyond the events of 1979. Even as we expose the complex web of corporate greed which nearly led to our radioactive ruin, we find the small acts of bravery that changed the course of history. We need to learn from the Three Mile Island disaster as we face the current climate and energy crisis.”
From Carla and Michael Shamberg, Executive Producers
“Whistleblowers are real-life superheroes. They risk their lives or livelihoods when they speak truth to power to protect the rest of us.”
From Robert Fernandez and Dan Levinson, Executive Producers from Moxie Pictures
