*Synopsis | Meltdown (2011)*
First, there was the monster earthquake, many thousand times more powerful than the one that devastated Christchurch. Then came the tsunami, and we still don't know how many souls were carried away by the ocean. And then there was the threat of a nuclear meltdown.

All you could do is wait and hope and try not to panic.
