Into Eternity is a documentary film by director Michael Madsen from 2009 about Onkalo, the world's first repository for highly radioactive waste located approx. 400 m deep in the rock within the Olkiluoto repository (Finland).

action

The film first explores the problem of radioactive waste and the reasons why it should not be stored on the surface or in the sea in the long term, but in the rock. Various Onkalo managers and representatives of the Finnish and Swedish authorities are interviewed. Since Onkalo is sealed and left to its own devices for 100,000 years after its completion and filling, Madsen focuses on the issue of atomic semiotics . In other words, how to prevent future generations (who may lack knowledge of the dangerousness of radioactive waste) from accidentally or deliberately drilling at the repository site.

Awards

Into Eternity received the European Documentary Award 2011 at the Crossing Europe film festival, among others .
