Emmy-winning filmmaker Joe Tripician delves into the complex legacy of the Manhattan Project in his poignant documentary. The film follows Tripician's parents, two of the 1,200 Army personnel unknowingly tasked with creating the first atomic bomb during World War II. In 1998, 53 years after the Hiroshima bombing, Tripician takes his parents back to Oak Ridge, where their honeymoon coincided with their secret wartime work. Through their recollections and rarely seen historical footage, the film unfolds a narrative of innocence, regret, and the enduring impact of their unwitting contribution to this devastating weapon.
