Revue de Presse -> L’Espresso
“… Un documentaire réalisé par Matteo Gagliardi et intitulé ‘Fukushima, a nuclear story’. En effet, il est presque incorrect d’utiliser le terme ‘documentaire’ pour décrire ce produit inhabituel.
Il était plutôt un exemple de contamination entre le canon du reportage journalistique, l’approfondissement de la contribution populaire et pertinente des dessins de manga (pour la première fois made in Italy grâce à Teatro Primo Studio – Film Beyond avec l’Académie européenne de Manga ).
Culture et art sans maniérismes et snobisme ont encadré le travail du correspondant du Japon SkyTg24 Pio D’Emilia”

#Revue de presse -> The Japan Times
“‘Fukushima: a nuclear story’ se distingue parmi 3/11 documentaires. La catastrophe de Fukushima de la centrale nucléaire a été examinée dans des centaines de documentaires à ce jour, en comptant tous les médias, les nationalités et les langues. Mais “Fukushima: a nuclear story” se distingue pour une raison simple et puissante: Sa figure principal, journaliste Italien Pio d’Emilia, a été parmi les premiers journalistes étrangers autorisés sur la scène après le séisme et le tsunami”.
