Synopsis
In the 1970s and 1980s, six Ukrainian nuclear cities emerged as symbols of Soviet ambition. These towns, built around nuclear power plants, were designed to embody the ideals of Lenin's vision for a utopian society. The film compiles TV and film chronicles from 1970 to 1986, capturing the construction and development of these cities. As the Soviet Union faced social and ideological crises, these nuclear cities represented a last bastion of the Soviet utopia, reflecting the era's contradictions and aspirations.
