You'd hope the repeated references to the decade-long, illegal (both internationally and domestically) bombing campaign waged on the country was an intentional if heavy-handed way to point to a better future of economic cooperation and clean energy. Yet a few engineers getting together to celebrate a project's first successful operation after completion is portrayed as a much darker and more ominous occurrence. |
