Atomic Love (2002)

Subtitles for: Atomic Love (2002)

In this work, the echo of Chornobyl appears literally as a stage for a "porn film". The main characters are a couple dressed in silver anti-radiation suits, striking erotic poses and imitating sexual intercourse against the backdrop of apocalyptic views of Prypiat. Grey high-rise buildings, abandoned attractions, and the city itself, which by its very appearance excludes hope for any kind of life, resonate with the figures of two lovers who, in their desire to be together, only produce a tragicomic effect of powerlessness.
