The first footage of the series - the events of April 27, 1988, when in his apartment in Moscow committed suicide academician Valery Legasov. The film shows how he finishes dictating to the recorder some confession about what happened in Chernobyl, and then hides the recorded tapes in the trash from the KGB agents watching the house and climbs into the loop.
Yes, Legasov really committed suicide on the second anniversary of the Chernobyl accident. And indeed, he left behind several audio cassettes with his memories and arguments about those events. However, of course, Legasov did not hide these tapes in the trash, so that they were not reached by KGB agents. These records were not a secret, they were deciphered, partially published, today anyone can read their texts. And it would be illogical to hide them: one of the cassettes, for example, is a recording of an interview with journalist Ales Adamovich, the other - a kind of collection of recommendations to colleagues at the Kurchatov Institute: he dictates the thesis of a generalizing scientific article about the causes and consequences of the Chernobyl disaster. There was no point in hiding those records. For Legasov.
The writers have submitted a story otherwise, saying that Soviet scientist, crushed by the weight of truth about what happened, wants to convey this truth to the people, bypassing the official authorities, trying to hold back the truth…
Then the events of the film are transferred to two years in the past - on the night of April 26, 1986, that is, the night of the Chernobyl accident. The events preceding the accident, the authors of the film do not describe: the action begins in the first moments after the explosion. His first hears, and then sees the burning station from the window of his apartment Lyudmila Ignatenko - the wife of fireman Vasily Ignatenko, who really participated in extinguishing the fire and really died from a huge dose of radiation. Basil leaves on the fire, and Lucy goes outside, where he sees hundreds of people going "on the bridge", where "see better" the fire at the station. Next - a long dramatic scene on the bridge: the inhabitants of Pripyat with children, including infants, fascinated look at the fire, the camera part focuses on the radioactive dust settling on them…
In reality, of course, nothing like this happened. Most residents of the city learned about the fire at the station only in the morning, and those who somehow heard about some emergency situation, did not attach any importance to this. And, of course, definitely would not be the inhabitants of Pripyat (city of atomic scientists, by the way!) to run far away to look at the fire, pulling out of warm beds of infants…
The main character (I guess you could say anti-hero): Deputy chief engineer for operation of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant Anatoly Dyatlov. The creators of the series have done everything to draw his figure in as dark colors as possible: tyrant, tyrant, despot, intriguer, careerist, indifferent to the lives of people.
Real woodpeckers really was tough, domineering and even despotic man, what I remember plant workers. However, he certainly wasn't as demonic a character as the film's authors portray him to be.
First woodpeckers - Yes, it really was - sends Kudryavtsev and Proskuryakov to manually lower the reactor control rods (control and protection), in order to quiet the noise. The mission that was impossible: cor reactor was destroyed along with him, but it did not yet know. This moment in the film shows almost fair.
Describing the collision of people with radiation, the authors of the film are very accurate in many ways, showing all the symptoms that eyewitnesses say: the taste of metal in the mouth, nausea and, of course, Eritrea, "nuclear tan", the consequences of radiation damage to the upper layer of the skin. And next to the same - blatant nonsense: they say, a fireman, lifting a piece of graphite from the reactor, a couple of minutes screaming in pain because of the radiation burn. No such thing. Application radiation burns appear 1-3 days after the lesion.
