[Frameworks] Films on nuclear energy, The Cold War, utopia

[Milwaukee Underground Film Festival]

This is a large collection of works along those lines. Unless you're only looking for oldies.

The connection ranges from very loose to very specific in terms of subject matter, and from very standard documentary to experimental animation.

What began as a documentary film about Robert Golka, an engineer who was experimenting with ball lightening and the development of fusion as an energy force, was turned into a spoof on the documentary form, inserting fictional characters into the story such as the Energy Czar (William Burroughs), and a Hollywood agent (filmmaker Robert Downey).
