Join the Atomic Museum at an ATOMIX event featuring Academy Award-nominated and Emmy Award-winning filmmaker Jon Else. The evening will include cocktails, hour d’oeuvres, conversation, and film excerpts from Else’s documentary “The Day After Trinity: J. Robert Oppenheimer and the Atomic Bomb.” Widely considered to be the quintessential Oppenheimer documentary, the film blends interviews with Oppenheimer’s family, friends, and colleagues with historical footage of the Manhattan Project and its aftermath for a powerful and personal look into the life of the “father of the atomic bomb.” The ATOMIX discussion will dive into Else’s personal stories and challenges from the filmmaking process as well as the resurgence of interest in “The Day After Trinity” due to last year’s release of Christopher Nolan’s “Oppenheimer.”
The List is possible thanks to sustaining members. Join today and get cool perks!
