Synopsis

Larry (Steve Bisley), an engineer at a nuclear waste facility, is badly injured when an earthquake causes an accident, and he knows the waste will reach the groundwater. He needs the public warned before it spreads. Ian Barry follows him as he hides with Carmel (Arna-Maria Winchester), a woman who has no reason to trust him, while Larry keeps the news going out.
