Chornobyl’s Continuous Impact: Ukraine’s Survivors Testify on Health and Environmental Issues (Research Brief)

in

My research consisted of collecting Soviet archival media material taken during and immediately following the Chornobyl nuclear reactor meltdown and filming present-day eye-witness survivors’ testimonies focusing on lingering health issues for a documentary about Chornobyl (working film title: “Life in the Dead Zone: The Documentary About Chornobyl”).

Irene Zabytko, of Wheat Street Productions, Inc., was a 2012-2013 Short-Term Travel Grants (STG) [7] fellow.
