This beautifully shot documentary tells the shocking story of the world’s first permanent repository for nuclear waste in Olkiluoto, Finland.
Dubbed “Onkalo” (a Finnish word that means “hiding place”), the facility will take the next 100 years to build, and it will span the next 100,000 years housing the radioactive byproducts of nuclear power generation in tunnels hewn out of solid bedrock.
Into Eternity poses necessary questions about the nuclear industry, and the nature of legacy in human history. Madsen and crew seem most concerned with how we warn our descendants of the deadly waste we left behind.
