The documentary follows Yannick Jadot, a Member of the European Parliament, as he navigates the political landscape after the Fukushima disaster in 2011. Jadot's mission is to push for improved nuclear safety regulations across Europe, confronting the complacency of major political parties.

The film captures the complexities of their efforts, revealing the interplay of strategy, public opinion, and political alliances.
