Zvizdal (Chernobyl - so far so close)

T04756822
26 April 1986, Pripyat, Ukraine. A nuclear reactor explodes and some 90 towns and villages are evacuated. But one couple, Petro and Nadia, refuse to leave. Without running water, electricity, telephone or mail, they hold on indestructibly in the infected zone for 30 years. Berlin returns to Brighton Festival with a filmic portrait of one elderly couple's self-imposed solitude. Featuring interviews with Petro and Nadia filmed between 2011 and 2016, Zvizdal tells a poignant story of survival.
