Annya's parents lived in a town so contaminated by the Chernobyl nuclear disaster that it was destroyed and buried. When she was four, Annya was diagnosed with a brain tumor. Photographer Robert Knoth visited Annya in Belarus in 2005 and returned in 2011.

  • @AriannaD94 I think you misunderstood the "like/dislike" system. In this case, if you like the video, it means that you like that the video has been posted here on youtube, so its tragic message can be spread not the content itself.

  • As an EE engineer who has a father, a friend's father, and uncles who work as nuclear control operators, I would like to think I know what I'm talking about in the realm of nuclear power. I completely understand the possibility of danger, but lets all get a few things straight.

    1. Nuclear power plants do not "explode"

    2. Chernobyl acted without a containment structure, or safeguards

    3. Fukushima was outdated by us standards.

    4. Nuclear power gets a lot of fuel by nuclear disarmament

  • all this and countless thousands more lives destroyed in the name of SOMEONE MAKING MONEY using an unsafe method bringing us electricity!

    its sickening.

    What's worse it's only only 1 part, we have gasoline effects, poisons in our water, pesticides in our food, cell phone towers, radio, satellite radiation making more energy that rips through our body 24 hours a day.

    ....all for OTHERS to make MONEY
