Albuquerque, NM– On November 27th & 28th, 2013, the International Uranium Film Festival (IUFF) will make its premiere screening in the United States, starting in the Southwest with Albuquerque, New Mexico highlighting over 40 films from 15 countries which explore not only this radioactive element called “uranium”, but nuclear practices as well. These are documentary films, experimental and animated films, new comedies, fiction and science fiction films

The International Uranium Film Festival is the world’s only traveling festival devoted to the entire Nuclear Fuel Chain, from uranium mining to nuclear power plants and uranium bullets, from Hiroshima to Fukushima and Fallujah. Now the International Uranium Film Festival is coming to the birthplace of the nuclear age.

The Festival will make its way from Albuquerque to Santa Fe and Window Rock, Arizona then finally to New York City & Washington D.C. in February 2014. The third IUFF took place at the Museum of Modern Art (MAM) in Rio de Janeiro in May 2013.

Founder of IUFF Norbert G. Suchanek of Germany (living in Brazil), will be present with Executive Director, Marcia Gomes de Oliveira of Brazil along with producers and directors of the films. The 3 screenings are organized by a diverse group of volunteers working to bring uranium films to the wide screen.
