Nuclear Hallucinations critically engages with the documentary format, using satirical impersonations, performance and ironic renderings of jingoistic rhetoric to form a narrative that explores the tragic absurdity of constructing nuclear power plants on a tsunami affected coast. The film is centered on the anti-nuclear struggle against the Kudankulam Atomic Power Project in South India. In a context where cases of sedition and waging of war against the state are filed against anti-nuclear protesters, the film attempts to question the totalitarian nature of pro-nuclear assertions.
