The documentary film "Chernobyl: The Lost Tapes" tells the story of the 1986 nuclear disaster through newly discovered footage and personal interviews with those who were there. The film features extraordinary and immersive archive footage, shot at great risk by a handful of cameramen who lived side by side with the "liquidators" who risked their lives to prevent another explosion and make the reactor safe. The footage, most of it never seen before in the West, reveals the full, shocking reality of the disaster and its consequences, including the bravery and heroism of the rescue workers who sacrificed themselves for the greater good.
