The Chernobyl disaster on April 26, 1986, and the ensuing rain of nuclear fallout led to the evacuation of 135,000 residents from the surrounding area. The affected areas were essentially abandoned, with the soil heavily contaminated; and yet, today the areas are rich with wildlife and offer one of Europe’s largest natural ecosystems. How do plants and animals flourish despite such high levels of nuclear contamination? This documentary investigates this mystery through interviews with biologists, geneticists, and other scientists, while also exploring the problems of nuclear contamination through the ecology of the wildlife that lives there, using CG animation to present the research in an accessible way.
