Thanks to the prestigious MovieMaker Magazine in Hollywood, Los Angeles, which selects the Coolest Film Festivals every year. Founded in <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/RioDeJaneiro" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RioDeJaneiro</span></a>, the unique film festival, also known as <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/AtomicAgeCinemaFest" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AtomicAgeCinemaFest</span></a>, is the only film festival in <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Brazil" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Brazil</span></a> to receive this honor this year. </p><p>"'The Uranium Film Festival is certainly one of the most unique festivals we've ever had on our list, but its singular focus shines an important light on problems that unite communities all around the world — and in fact our entire world.

Inevitably, folks wonder whether there are enough films on the subject to warrant a festival. The answer is yes. This, of course, is because the issue is expansive, impacting all 50 U.S. states and many more corners of the world than most folks realize.
