March 11, 2011. Japan is hit by the biggest tsunami it has ever experienced, leading to the Fukushima disaster. Alexandra, a French executive newly arrived from Hong Kong to work in a Tokyo bank, has to face this nuclear crisis amid pervading terror and chaos. Torn between the orders of her management and the desire to protect her family and colleagues, Alexandra tries to come to terms with the situation and finds herself, almost in spite of herself, defending a certain idea of honor.
French actress Karin Viard shines bright as Alexandra in this gripping and original drama, loosely based on a true story.
