Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Chernobyl: Abyss, also known as Chernobyl 1986 (Russian: Чернобыль, "Chernobyl") is a 2021 Russian film directed by Danila Kozlovsky.It is about—how did you guess?—the explosion at the Chernobyl power plant in 1986. Kozlovsky stars as Alexey Karpushin, a (fictional) firefighter in Pripyat who, at the beginning of the film, runs into his old girlfriend Olga, a hairdresser. Alexey and Olga go out on a date, but when he comes to her apartment and meets her ten-year-old son also named Alexey, he quickly connects the dots. Olga turns on him, refusing to get back together and refusing to accompany him when he gets a transfer to Kiev.On April 25 Alexey's buddies at the fire station throw him a goodbye party. At 1:23 the next morning, Reactor #4 at Chernobyl goes boom. Since he technically wasn't part of the local fire brigade anymore, Alexey did not go to the Chernobyl roof with his friends and so unlike them did not absorb a fatal dose of radiation. Instead, he helps rescue his friends from the scene. He is soon pressed into service as part of an emergency party, which must go into the bowels of the plant and open a valve to drain spilled coolant water. If the water is not drained, when the melted core hits it, a steam explosion will result that will blow up the entire plant and spread nuclear contamination all over the Soviet Union and Europe.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Meanwhile, little Alexey Junior was out on his bike and witnessed the explosion of Reactor #4. He soon becomes deathly ill with radiation sickness.Compare Chernobyl, the hit 2019 HBO miniseries. Unlike that series, this movie does not feature any scenes of the Chernobyl plant being operated, instead focusing tightly on the story of Alexey the fictional heroic firefighter. | |

Artistic License – History: Other than all the characters being fictional... Within hours of the accident, Alexey is whisked from the hospital into a meeting where an emergency response team is discussing the need to drain the coolant water. They consult blueprints and maps of radiation contamination at the facility while they work. In real life, the need to drain the coolant wasn't clear until several days later. And thanks to stalling from local authorities, the horrific radiation levels at the plant also weren't immediately known.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); }) | |
