Chernobyl: Causes, Cover-up, and Consequences

Photographer Michael Haritan shares personal photographs and videos of the 1986 catastrophe, giving a haunting documentation of the disaster site, a psychiatric institution and orphanage - enlightening audiences with a rare view of not just a disastrous event, but a place and the people who once worked and lived there. His trips to Ukraine in 2016 and 2018 provided research information about the nuclear accident – its causes, cover-up and consequences, and the release of radioactive material still affecting the health of millions of people and the environment.
