Synopsis
On April 26, 1986, the Chernobyl disaster impacted the world forever and was considered the worst nuclear accident in mankind’s history, both in terms of casualties and costs.
It all started in 1970 in an area of forest and marshland in Northern Ukraine, where a utopia was made real: the largest nuclear power plant in the world alongside a model town of Soviet communism, Pripyat.
The people who moved to Chernobyl and Pripyat were chosen for their skills, their determination, and their willingness to believe in the future.
