Atomic Mom is a documentary film written and directed by M.T Silvia, which focuses on the connection between two mothers that are each on a different end of the Hiroshima atomic warfare spectrum: Pauline Silvia, a United States Navy biologist, and one of the only female scientists present during the 1953 radiation detonations of Operation Upshot-Knothole at the then-Nevada Test Site, and Emiko Okada, a Japanese woman who was exposed to radiation from the Hiroshima nuclear bombings as a child. Atomic Mom also offers a comparison of the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum and the Atomic Testing Museum in Las Vegas, Nevada. Through the use of numerous interviews with Japanese doctors, historians and Hiroshima survivors, M.T Silvia discusses matters of censorship, value of scientific innovation, human rights, personal responsibility and the prospect of world peace in the aftermath of Hiroshima.

High society girl Marjory Paton (Elsa Chauvel) leaves the city to live on her father's cattle property, run by "Greenhide Gavin" (Bruce Gordon). She carries romantic notions of the bush, of "being swung to the saddle by big brown arms", but Greenhide Gavin is initially only annoyed by her presence. Greenhide contains a blossoming romance, and the thwarting of a plot to steal cattle.
