Synopsis: | In 1884, five year old Albert Einstein is given a compass as a present, awakening in him a scientific curiosity. In 1939, he writes to the US president urging him to build the atomic bomb to counter Nazi aggression. Six years later in Hiroshima, the hands of the town clock are bent backwards, and the trees are crumbled to ash. Einstein's footprints are fading fast. In 2007, in the centre of a small Ukrainian town there is a statue of the god who gave fire to man. It is a ghost town. A sign reads 'Welcome to Chernobyl'. | |||||
