The true story of one of the worst man-made catastrophes in history: the catastrophic nuclear accident at Chernobyl. A tale of the brave men and women who sacrificed to save Europe from unimaginable disaster.
Valery Legasov battles a suffocating bureaucracy to expose the lethal truth behind the cooling reactor's meltdown. This claustrophobic drama captures the terrifying cost of state-sponsored lies and the heavy burden of scientific integrity.
