Snake Dance

The knowledge needed to build the atomic bomb was not given to us, it was consciously pursued. And the world has been living with the consequences ever since. "Snake Dance" is a personal reading of humankind’s catastrophic decision to play God. From New Mexico to Congo and Japan, we explore the atomic legacy and the indelible stamp it has left on the world by following the tracks of 2 characters who forged this story: German-born Aby Warburg who studied the Pueblo Indians of Los Alamos, and Robert Oppenheimer who will always be known as the inventor of the ultimate weapon of mass destruction.
