Overview

The triple nuclear reactor meltdowns at Fukushima, Japan, had a profound impact in the small state of Vermont, as it occurred in the midst of a years-long citizens’ campaign to close an aging problem-plagued nuclear reactor. POWER STRUGGLE captures perspectives on all sides of the controversy, including from local residents both for and against nuclear power, elected officials (including U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders and Vermont Governor Peter Shumlin), nuclear engineer Arnie Gundersen, a Vermont Yankee spokesperson, federal nuclear regulators, and the legendary activist Frances Crowe.
