Charged with intensity, The Children is an atomic drama about the responsibility of generations to those who follow. Robin and Hazel, two nuclear scientists, live a quiet existence in their isolated cottage on the coast. Yes, electricity is rationed. Yes, radiation fills the air. Yes, it’s safer to leave the house in a hazmat suit. But they are determined to enjoy the retirement they worked so hard for. That is, until old friend and colleague Rose arrives, bringing with her a past Robin and Hazel had left behind, and a frightening challenge for their future. Content Warning: Contains coarse language.
