HEAVY WATER: A Film for Chernobyl
This film by David Bickerstaff and Phil Grabsky uses Mario Petrucci's award-winning poem "Heavy Water", to tell the story of
the Chernobyl nuclear disaster and its catastrophic aftermath. On April 26th, 1986, reactor four at Chernobyl Nuclear Power
Plant explodes, sending an enormous radioactive cloud over northern Ukraine and neighboring Belarus. The danger is not
immediately communicated and the local population goes about its business as usual. May Day celebrations begin, children
play, and the residents of Pripyat, the town built to house the workers at Chernobyl, 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
contaminated land. This is the story of the people who dealt with the world's worst nuclear disaster at ground level: the firefighters,
the soldiers, the 'liquidators' and their families. #12129/1893 52 minutes 2006 $279.95
LIVING WITH CHERNOBYL: The Future of Nuclear Power
The world's worst nuclear accident occurred in the former Soviet Union on April 26, 1986. Ukraine's Chernobyl nuclear power
plant exploded, sending radioactive debris over a large area of Northern Europe. Dire predictions were made at the time
about the consequences of the radioactive fallout. What really happened at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant following the
accident? What is fact and what myth and misconception? The scare of Chernobyl solidified America's rejection of the nuclear
power industry and has been a major force driving nuclear energy policy in the United States ever since. That may change
now. Fear of global warming has fractured the environmental movement on nuclear energy. Nuclear is one of the few largescale
carbon-free energy sources, yet the very real dangers caused by our nuclear waste storage policy are still unresolved.
This documentary explores these issues, and the dilemmas created, in large part, by our emotional response to nuclear.
