Although the name “Chernobyl” has become synonymous with an “explosive disaster,” the ordinary American knows little about what the event actually meant for Russia and Ukraine. The long -term impact of the radiation exposure on the people and the land is destructive and essential to understand.
In one particularly devastating scene, a new -born baby one of the locals dies four hours after his birth from exposure to radiation, showing how the effects of this disaster reached one generation to the next.
