? On April 26, 1986, at 1:24 a.m, the world?s worst ever man-made disaster took
place. Reactor 4 at Chernobyl Nuclear Power Station, was beset by a series of
explosions that rose deep from its radioactive depths and blasted itself high into the
atmosphere, eventually seeping its way into the far corners of the globe.
? Chernobyl in 2008, 22 years later, has become a half-global legend and half-forgotten
horror story. Many people have returned to the contaminated areas they still call home.
? Since then birth defects and various other pathologies, especially thyroid cancer,
have afflicted the population.
? Chernobyl ? The Hidden Legacy shows the region over a period of four years by
Pierpaolo Mittica, who returned several times to document the people and the
contaminated landscape they still inhabit. It shows that the horrors of Chernobyl, and
its legacy, are still anything but forgotten.
? Chernobyl is not the past, Cherobyl is not history, Chernobyl is the beginning
