RADIOACTIVE: The Women of Three Mile Island is a feature documentary about the 1979 Three Mile Island meltdown–the worst commercial nuclear accident in U.S. history. RADIOACTIVE covers the never-before-told stories of four intrepid homemakers-turned-activists, two women lawyers who took the local community’s case all the way to the Supreme Court, and a young female journalist who was caught in the radioactive crossfire.

About the Producer, Writer, Director:
Professor of Environmental Humanities, at Stony Brook University, Heidi Hutner has been following the stories of nuclear disasters and impacted communities for a lifetime. An eco-feminist whose mother demonstrated against above-ground nuclear bomb testing in the 1960s with Women Strike For Peace, Hutner is deeply familiar with and concerned about how misinformed the public has been about the dangers of nuclear technology and ionizing radiation exposures, and in particular, radiation’s disproportionate harm to women and children, and to communities of color (environmental racism).
On March 28th, 2018, at a commemorative protest for the Three Mile Island meltdown that took place on March 28th,1979, Hutner met with a group of activist women, Paula, Beth, Linda, and Joyce – “Concerned Mothers and Women” – mothers who were impacted by the nuclear disaster. Hutner learned of the cover-ups and criminal actions that took place at the nuclear power plant (before, during, and after the meltdown) and was inspired to make this compelling film.
