Chernobyl. Life ahead.
= On the
26 th of
April 1986, the reactor n°4 of the Chernobyl
nuclear station exploded, rocking the world with
the worst human and ecological disaster of all
time. Since then the radiations are poisoning the
life of about 8 millions people of Belarus,
Ukraine and Russia. From outside everything look
surprisingly beautiful and serene but in these
devastated lands nothing is normal anymore. In
each piece of earth, in each breathe of the air a
silent threat veil the existence of the people
which has changed forever.
They are questioning like all the scientists of
the world :” what is our future? What is the
future of our children?” Because the accident is
the first nuclear accident of humanity and there
is no pasted experience, no reference.
For them, it is no question to forget.
And yet they have learned to live with the
catastrophe, the invisible monster. They have
learned to live ahead with their suffering, with
a certain strength, a certain dignity.
Life goes on...
