The atomic bombing of Hiroshima 65 years ago has been told from one generation to another in numerous ways, but Academy Award-winning film director and producer Malcolm Clarke is attempting a different approach.
The Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum, which portrays the tragic scene, and its effect on visitors are key themes in a 90-minute documentary feature that Clarke, 55, is preparing to shoot for release around summer 2011.
In the film, tentatively titled "A World Without Peace," Clarke hopes to include interviews with people involved in conflict resolution, such as Nelson Mandela, the Dalai Lama and Mikhail Gorbachev, as well as prominent figures who have visited the museum.
