Atomic Park
· France (2003) 8’
Atomic Park is a place in the White Sands desert (USA), near Trinity Site, where the first atom bomb exploded in July 1945. This National Park is as well-suited for picnics as it is for nuclear testing. In the background we hear Marilyn Monroe's desperate monologue from The Misfits (1961).
