In this captivating episode of "Through the Lens," we sit down with Mike Harintan, a distinguished photographer who penetrated the veiled perimeter of Chernobyl three decades post-catastrophe. Harintan's vivid narrative escorts us through the obscured corridors of history, revisiting the Russian government's concealment efforts and the enduring spirit of the survivors. His recent publication, "Chernobyl: Aftermath of the World's Greatest Disaster," encapsulates the last visual chronicles of the exclusion zone before installing the iron dome over Reactor #4. Mike's lens captures the untamed landscapes and the skeletal remains of ground zero—areas beyond the reach of regular tours. He discusses the inevitability of nature engulfing the remnants of the calamity and the paramount importance of documenting the truth before it's swallowed by time. Join us as we unveil the silent echoes of Chernobyl through Mike's eyes, preserving the poignant testimony of resilience and remembrance.
