Three Two One - Zero!

1/13/2025

It's been only three weeks since the first successful test of the atomic bomb when the "Enola Gay" travels to Japan to drop a payload that will end WWII. Whilst the families of the continental USA are celebrating a reduction in ration restrictions and watching the US PGA come to it's conclusion, Hiroshima and Nagasaki are reduced to rubble with virtually nothing left upstanding - structural, man nor beast. The imagery is ghastly, ruined, desperate and coupled with those similar pictures from a war-torn and defeated Nazi Germany, Alexander Scourby narrates a story of man's historical obsession with power, science and wealth - dating back to the ancient Greeks, using a mixture of especially written dialogue and quotations from a variety of spiritual texts that gradually turn magic into fact.
