This film has been made by scientists at London's Imperial College who actively oppose Britain's involvement in research on President Reagan's $30 billion 'Strategic Defence Initiative' or SDI.
Like many of their American counterparts, the Imperial College scientists are deeply disturbed by SDI, which they see as yet another turn of the screw in the escalation of the arms race. Alongside contributions from several eminent scientists, is a poignant presentation of the case against SDI by Harry Fairbrother.
As a mathematician in the Second World War he worked on the Atomic Bomb, which, to his horror, was used at Hiroshima in 1945.
Narrator Bob Peck
