Sinopsis
A story about a city built as a paradise but turned into hell – a city slowly turning into paradise again, just in a different way. Igor has been living in the Chernobyl Zone for almost ten years, for peace and a chance to escape modern civilization. Psychological issues, both personal and global, are still troubling him, and he embodies both harmonizing peace and supernatural stress. And an existential secret – the secret of the essence of life. He is surrounded by the elderly inhabitants of Chernobyl, living in villages entirely overcome by nature. They lead their unrealistic Atlantean lives, from which even war in Ukraine seems to be happening on another planet.
Un grupo de amigos que están pasando las vacaciones en Europa van a a parar a Prypiat, una ciudad abandonada, donde se refugiaron después del accidente los trabajadores de la central nuclear de Chernobil; pero pronto se darán cuenta de que no están solos.
Chernóbil: Abyss es el primer gran largometraje ruso sobre las consecuencias de la explosión de la central nuclear de Chernóbil, cuando cientos de personas sacrificaron sus vidas para limpiar el lugar de la catástrofe y evitar con éxito un desastre aún mayor que podría haber convertido una gran parte del continente europeo en una zona de exclusión inhabitable.
Hace veinte años, en la madrugada del 26 de abril de 1986, el cuarto reactor de la planta de energía nuclear de Chernobyl, explotó en una llamarada de colores que alcanzó los 1.000 metros de altura en el cielo de Ucrania. Es una auténtica batalla en contra del tiempo, que miles de soviéticos jamás podrán olvidar. Durante los ocho meses posteriores a la explosión de la central nuclear, 800.000 jóvenes soldados, mineros, bomberos y civiles procedentes de todas las regiones de la antigua Unión Soviética, trabajaron sin descanso para intentar mitigar los efectos de la radioactividad, construir un sarcófago alrededor del reactor accidentado y en definitiva, salvar al mundo de otra probable tragedia. Todos ellos estaban guiados por el temor a una peligrosa reacción en cadena derivada de la explosión inicial, cien veces superior a los efectos de la bomba de Hiroshima.
In this special documentary that inspired a two-season television series, scientists and other experts speculate about what the Earth, animal life, and plant life might be like if, suddenly, humanity no longer existed, as well as the effect humanity's disappearance might have on the artificial aspects of civilization.
Descubre cómo este desastre industrial cambió el curso de la Historia, trastocó la geopolítica mundial y, directa o indirectamente, reorganizó los equilibrios y las relaciones de poder del siglo XX.
The story of Chernobyl told through a newly discovered hoard of dramatic footage filmed at the nuclear plant during the disaster and deeply personal interviews of those who were there, directed by Emmy Award-winner and Russian-speaker James Jones.
Some 200 women defiantly cling to their ancestral homeland in Chernobyl’s radioactive “Exclusion Zone.”
As his country is gripped by revolution and war, a Ukrainian victim of the Chernobyl nuclear disaster discovers a dark secret and must decide whether to risk his life and play his part in the revolution by revealing it.
1986 - The protest movement against the construction of the nuclear power plant in Brokdorf is on its last legs. Only one rural commune remains: the "Alternative Wohnkollektiv Regenbogen". For them, it could go on and on with endless consensus discussions, shearing sheep and naked communal bathing. One day, the lowland communards are joined by two city dwellers, Hanne and her son Niels. While Hanne gets used to scream therapy and raising vegetables surprisingly quickly - and even more quickly to the tantra games with commune guru Peter - Niels has less and less desire for the dogmatic commune rules. Out of defiance, he joins the violent nuclear power plant resistance, thus upsetting the tranquil chaos of the commune. The big bang, however, comes when a reactor explodes in distant Chernobyl. Exactly on the day Bobby Ewing dies, the petroleum prince from "Dallas" and series favorite of the commune.
A short film based on the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. fictional universe, combining the “Picnic to the curb” of the Strugatsky brothers, “Stalker” by Andrei Tarkovsky and the “Exclusion Zone” location around the Chernobyl NPP. According to the scenario, an agent of the peacekeeping forces, nicknamed "The Photographer", arrives in the Zone to prevent a global scale catastrophe, which could be caused by an experiment that went out of control at a scientific lab.
Un análisis retrospectivo de las causas y de las consecuencias del catastrófico accidente acaecido en la central nuclear de Chernóbil, Ucrania, el 26 de abril de 1986.
What would happen if the world were suddenly without people - if humans vanished off the face of the earth? How would nature react - and how swiftly? On the edge of Europe, the deserted village of Chernobyl reveals the surprising answer after an unplanned experiment. Chernobyl was abandoned by people after the worst nuclear disaster in history (April 26, 1986). A level 7 meltdown resulted in a severe release of radioactivity following a massive explosion that destroyed the reactor. More than 20 years later, Chernobyl has been taken over by a remarkable collection of wildlife and descendents of pets that were left in the city when its residents fled the nuclear fallout. Unexpectedly in the aftermath of this disaster, Chernobyl has become a sanctuary for plants, birds, and animals, including some species thought to be on the brink of extinction.
A group of American tourists travels across Eastern Europe. By accident, they get to Chernobyl, where they face some local evil. These are the ghosts of killed citizens who tried to flee the city through military cordons. But it turns out that not all inhabitants of the Exclusion Zone are dead. The group have to reveal the mystery of an unusual girl from the dead city and try to get out from this place alive.
This Academy Award-winning documentary takes a look at children born after the 1986 Chernobyl nuclear plant disaster who have been born with a deteriorated heart condition.
Eight months after the Chernobyl disaster, a Chernobylite woman that stayed behind to care for her sick mother gives birth to a mutated daughter. She wakes up after giving birth to find her mother gone. Masha, isolated and suffering from cataracts from the radiation exposure, becomes fearful that soldiers will take her contaminated baby. While attempting to reunite with her family in Kiev, the blinding mother and infant become lost in a forest. Masha sees a figure chasing her and believes it's a soldier that wants her child.
Inside the Chornobyl exclusion zone Grandma Prisa, the family matriarch, consorts with water nymphs, eats a diet filled with hallucinogenic mushrooms, and claims to have personally stabbed 12 SS soldiers to death during World War II. She lives together with her divorced and chronically ill daughter Slava and grandson Vova. Unexpectedly, their measured life comes to an end - Grandma Prisa receives a mystical warning about an impending catastrophe.
El 26 de Abril de 1986, el reactor número 4 de la Central Nuclear de Chernobyl hizo explosión produciendo lo que ha sido una de las peores catástrofes de la historia de la humanidad. Hoy en día, casi tres décadas después, la Zona de Exclusión del desastre es un lugar inhóspito, apocalíptico, abandonado, olvidado, definitivamente un lugar en el que el corazón de nuestra especie ha dejado de latir. Este es un proyecto realizado con la máxima austeridad,sin fines económicos, el único fin es acercar al espectador al desastre y concienciar sobre las víctimas y las consecuencias.
Documental basado en el libro de la Nobel de Literatura de 2015 Svetlana Alexievich. La película da la palabra a científicos, educadores, periodistas, parejas y niños que asistieron al colapso de sus vidas cotidianas, causado por una improbable catástrofe. Pero antes que presentar las lamentaciones de estos hombres, mujeres y niños mediante los planos tipo entrevista de los documentales convencionales, el realizador invita a los espectadores a embarcarse en un sorprendente viaje espiritual y lírico hasta el corazón del horror.
