Kernfusion - Der Traum von der Sonnenenergie

The story of dedicated scientists working to build a small sun on Earth, which would unleash perpetual, cheap, clean energy for mankind. After decades of failed attempts, a massive push is now underway to crack the holy grail of energy.

Proving just how ignorant of science people in America are, this reviewer did not even knowing there were massive, multi-billion dollar functional fusion machines in existence. The word "fusion" is usually followed up with "is impossible", and for those who want to escape fossil fuels, the conversation turns to wind, solar and hydroelectric.

This film, which screens July 27 at the Fantasia International Film Festival, re-injects fusion into the conversation. Not only do we see that it is possible, it is really quite inevitable. The only factors are (as always) money and time. But the future is now.
