This film is a beautifully made anti-Soviet and anti-Russian propaganda. How cost the lie? You can see the cost of this HBO Series to understand how much. 20% of the film is true facts and 80% hypocritical lies. The art of the producers is how the true facts are subtly woven into the web of lies. People who have never seen documentary films about this catastrophe will never be able to determine this fact.

Some facts - Legasov was not a physicist, he was a chemist! At that time, the Soviet Union was dry law and therefore no one could give a soldier or other worked people the vodka! Legasov's report at the IAEA was never challenged by anyone until now.

Scherbina was an engineer by education, she was in charge of the energy sector of the Soviet industry and therefore knew the structure of the nuclear power plant well.

Both Shcherbina and Legasov were communists (they were members of the Communist Party), and also were the elite of Soviet society, and therefore, as shown in the film, they could not communicate disrespectfully among themselves. Scientists in Soviet society greatly respected scientists.

Legasov and Shcherbina did not attend the trial and therefore did not reveal any "truth".

"The bridge of death" - that was what the locals called him before the explosion, because a motorcyclist died in this place several years ago. And it was just a local story. Since the explosion occurred at 2 am, no one came to the bridge, everyone was asleep !!!!

Check this facts himself and know how cost the lie.
