Raspad (Mikhail Belikov, 1990, 100 min, in Russian with English subtitles)

This mixture of epics, documentary, intimate drama, and science fiction focuses on the immediate aftermath of the explosion at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant in 1986. Couples, friends, and a risk-taking journalist are woven into the larger framework of the disaster.

Following the screening, discussion with Peter Almond, producer.
