Chernobyl Heart

Chernobyl Heart can now be seen on HBO. The Academy Award winning film movingly and shockingly depicts the continuing effects of radiation on the children of Belarus, the country most effected by the Chernobyl nuclear disaster of 1986. The film was inspired by and shows the work of Chernobyl Children's Project International, and the work of the pediatric heart surgeon William Novick, M.D., whose work in Belarus is funded and logistically supported by CCPI.

This documentary will rip your heart out. Double feature with Children Underground and you might even kill yourself. Seriously, it's so fucked up what goes on in the world.
