¿Podemos vivir aquí? (Un lugar llamado Chernóbil) (2002)

Military people call such places "FRONTLINE", liquidators who worked at the Chernobyl nuclear station called it "ROOF COATING". It was the most contaminated, and therefore the most dangerous, place in the zone. The remains of the roof coating of the 4th reactor. The operation on decontaminating the roof lasted more than five months. We will tell about only two days. About the most important two days in the life of an explorer - dosimetrist Valeriy Starodumov. He participated in this operation until it was over. He himself came out to the roof and led people there. He himself planted the "victory banner" at the level of 75 meters, as the signal for the zone: the roof coating has been decontaminated! Now, 25 years later, Valeriy Starodumov comes back to the zone. Now Chernobyl is a tourist object. But not for him...

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Chernobyl 1986. A nuclear reactor exploded, spewing out massive quantities of radiation into the atmosphere. Within days, the pollution had spread across Europe. Living on land contaminated with radioactivity would be a life-changing ordeal for the people of Belarus, but also for the Sami reindeer herders of central Norway. It even affected the Gaels of the distant Hebrides. Five years ago there was a meltdown at the Fukushima reactor, and thousands of Japanese people found their homes, fields and farms irradiated, just as had happened in Europe. This international documentary, filmed in Belarus, Japan, the lands of Norway's Sami reindeer herders and in the Outer Hebrides, poses the question: what lessons have we learned?

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.

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.

Mothers and doctors speak out about the grim reality of life in the five years following the Chernobyl disaster. In children, doctors witnessed a massive increase of recurrent infections, baldness, as well as leukaemia and other cancers.

Ljudmila Ignatenko tells the story of her and her husband Vasilij, a firefighter who was one of the victims of the Chernobyl disaster in 1986.

Un ingeniero que construye una cúpula sobre el reactor nuclear que gotea… un médico que realiza 36 abortos en una noche…. un bombero, todavía herido por la radiación ... una niña que fue evacuada de su casa ... un soldado que aprendió a luchar contra un enemigo invisible y un oficial encargado de retirar los desechos nucleares del techo ... En el Israel de hoy, hay 1608 liquidadores de Chernobyl, personas que participaron en la liquidación de las consecuencias del desastre de Chernobyl. Cada año son cada vez menos. La película presenta su historia, como un mosaico de evidencias y material de archivo exclusivo nunca antes visto, entretejidos en el panorama más amplio del desastre, que se cuenta desde diferentes perspectivas. Treinta años después, los Liquidadores están regresando al mundo perdido de su pasado, tratando de enfrentar sus recuerdos, miedos y arrepentimientos.

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.

On April 26th, 1986, reactor four at Chernobyl nuclear power station explodes, sending an enormous radioactive cloud over Northern Ukraine and neighbouring Belarus. The danger is kept a secret from the rest of the world and the nearby population who go about their business as usual. May Day celebrations begin, children play and the residents of Pripyat marvel at the spectacular fire raging at the reactor. After three days, an area the size of England becomes contaminated with radioactive dust, creating a 'zone' of poisoned land. Based on Mario Petrucci's award-winning book-length poem (split over two books), 'Heavy Water: a film for Chernobyl', and the shorter version 'Half Life: a Journey to Chernobyl", tells the story of the people who dealt with the disaster at ground-level: the fire-fighters, soldiers, 'liquidators', and their families.
