Peter Cusack at '86' film and urbanism festival in Slavutych, Ukraine
Slavutych is perhaps the youngest city in Ukraine. It was built to replace Pripyat, which became a ghost city after Chernobyl nuclear disaster in 1986. Currently it is the home to multinational science, engineer and construction personnel building a so called New Safe Confinement over the 4th reactor of the Chernobyl Power Plant. The construction is expected to be finished by the end of 2016 or in early 2017. After that most of its inhabitants will have to look for the job elsewhere and the city of Slavutych may repeat the destiny of Pripyat, becoming another ghost city.
86 film and urbanism festival was organized for a third time in Slavutych to draw attention to the urban and ecological problems, as well as to support Ukrainian cinematography.
