"TRINITY, a scrappy little documentary, takes a closer look at the people and places that have never recovered from their chapter in the Manhattan Project story. It’s a hopeful sign that this film is one of several recent attempts to show the true cost of atomic testing and the subsequent bombings of Nagasaki and Hiroshima."

Liz Braun, Alliance of Women Film Journalists

Oppenheimer's Manhattan Project culminated in the Trinity test on July 16, 1945: the detonation of the first nuclear bomb. In an instant, shrouded in secrecy, the world forever changed.

Trinity explores the silences surrounding what was unleashed — in New Mexico, Navajo Nation and Japan. Contrasting official histories with first-person testimony and juxtaposing government narratives about the nuclear age with the lived reality of citizens, viewers are left to meditate on the ironies that emerge.

Trinity is a philosophical movie about the birth of the nuclear age and the silences that surround it. Filmed over six days, it captures mysterious sights from the atomic Southwest: a dark obelisk marking ground zero; an owl-themed bar haunted by ghosts of nuclear scientists; Trinitite for sale at a local rock shop; and weaving together interviews with archival footage, camcorder recordings and haunting music.
