Introduction
The first feature film shot in the Chernobyl area, where the nuclear power plant tragedy occurred in 1986.
Synopsis
April 26, 1986. On that day, Anya and Piotr celebrate their marriage. Little Valery and his father Alexei, a physicist at the power station in Chernobyl, plant an apple tree. Nikolai, the forest warden, makes his rounds of forests. Then, an accident occurs at the power station. Insidiously, the radioactivity transforms nature. The rain is yellow, the trees turn red. Piotr, a volunteer fireman, leaves to extinguish flames, but he never returns. A few days later, the population of the area begins to evacuate. Alexei, forced to keep silent by the authorities, prefers to disappear.
