The Battle of Chernobyl

On April 26, 1986, a devastating explosion rocked the Chernobyl nuclear power plant in Ukraine, sending a 1,000-foot flame into the sky and launching a desperate battle to prevent a second disaster. This documentary combines unseen footage and personal testimony to tell the story for the first time of the Battle of Chernobyl. Over eight months, 8000,000 soldiers, miners, firefighters and civilians from across the Soviet Union worked tirelessly to contain the radioactive damage, construct a sarcophagus around the damaged reactor and save Europe from another potential catastrophe.
