KINESKI SINDROM - tragedija koju mnogi smatraju tek malo manje opasnom od eksplozije atomske bombe. KINESKI SINDROM - izuzetan "krimić" koji otkriva neke rane američkog društva, površnost zabavljačkih medija i pohlepu najbogatijih kompanija, pokazao se proročkim na vrlo neugodan i vrlo brz način. Samo tjedan dana poslije američke premijere toga filma, dogodilo se (u ožujku 1979), u nuklearnoj elektrani Otok tri milje, nedaleko Harrisburga, upravo ono što su predvidjeli autori filma. Nesreća koja je gotovo dovela do katastrofe. KINESKI SINDROM - "Kada se u reaktornoj posudi zbog kvara u reaktorskom rashladnom uređaju smanji razina vode", objašnjava u filmu i knjizi profesor Lowell reporterima, "nuklearno se gorivo može početi tako neobuzdano zagrijavati da se na kraju pretvara u usijanu, nezaustavljivu masu koja prodire kroz betonsko dno elektrane ravno u zemlju, i propada, teorijski, kroz središte zemlje - sve do Kine." KINESKI SINDROM - Uzbudljiva priča o televizijskom reporterskom timu koji pobeđuje u borbi protiv vremena i kompanija koje zbog profita pokušavaju umanjiti značenje jedne nesreće, nesreće koja je zamalo postala KINESKI SINDROM.

THE CHINA SYNDROME - a tragedy that many consider to be only slightly less dangerous than an atomic bomb explosion. THE CHINA SYNDROME - a remarkable thriller that reveals some early American societal issues, the superficiality of entertainment media, and the greed of the wealthiest corporations, proved prophetic in a very unsettling and rapid way. Just a week after the American premiere of the film, starring Jane Fonda, Jack Lemmon, and Michael Douglas, an incident occurred at the Three Mile Island nuclear power plant near Harrisburg in March 1979, exactly as the film's authors had predicted. An accident that nearly led to catastrophe. THE CHINA SYNDROME - "When the water level in the reactor vessel drops due to a failure in the reactor cooling system," explains Professor Lowell to reporters in the film and book, "the nuclear fuel can begin to heat uncontrollably, eventually turning into a molten, unstoppable mass that penetrates through the concrete floor of the plant straight into the ground, theoretically, through the center of the earth - all the way to China." THE CHINA SYNDROME - an exciting story about a television reporting team racing against time and corporations that, for profit, try to downplay the significance of an accident, an accident that almost became THE CHINA SYNDROME.
