  • Strong evidence. "Back to Chernobyl"

The disaster in Chernobyl in April 1986 was close to being a global scale disaster. An explosion in the nuclear reactor has resulted in radioactive emissions, which directly or indirectly hit Ukraine and other countries in the USSR, Finland, Poland, etc. The disaster also spawned one of last year's spoken series, which also won many awards.

"Back to Chernobyl" is an Israeli docu that tells the story of Jews who were at the time of the Chernobyl disaster and the township near the reactor. Some were liquidators - the system officials who took part in neutralizing the Chernobyl disaster results.

Roman Shumenov's film brings first-hand the testimonies of individuals from the 1,608 disaster survivors still living in Israel. Some were children, such as Oksana Berginsky, who was evacuated from the disaster area when she was 12. She tells her story and admits she is traumatized to this day. Similarly, 120,000 people were evacuated from their homes without warning, and never returned to him. In the film, she returns to places she had to abandon as a child.

"Back to Chernobyl" manages to bring a mosaic of strong evidence, which together forms a chilling picture of what happened after the disaster. Polina Pulaski, a physician from Prefiat, illustrates in her testimony the chaos that prevailed: "We did not deal with the results of radiation. All pregnant women had to have an abortion because their embryos absorbed the radiation and within hours there were malformations. One night, 36 abortions were performed," she says.

The film goes on to bring the voices of people who were really close to the roof of the reactor - the most dangerous place in the world at the time (exposure to radiation on the roof could have killed a person in ten minutes). Robots brought from Germany and Japan to clear the rubble have stopped working because of the radiation. But someone had to clear the debris and so we let people do it - they were attached to the bio-robots nickname. Most were unaware of the extent of the radiation damage.

"Back to Chernobyl" he was indicted on those who were responsible at the time for repairing the damage. Soviet embarrassment and the attempt to hide the blast went up in precious time and with great damage. Most of all, these admirers who were saved from the disaster and prevented him from growing up felt betrayed. They did not thank them, forgot about them and especially those who sacrificed their lives for all of humanity. In every disaster story, their story seems to be forgotten, and this film is a painful and important human reminder.

"Back to Chernobyl," Saturday night, 9 p.m., 11 p.m.
