After two minutes of watching it was clear that the "Russian" woodpecker is worthless propaganda movie about present situation in Ukraine and against the Russian government, not about Chernobyl catastrophe. A surreal story with elements of schizophrenia was mixed with worst kind of propaganda scenes from CNN, VOX and other one-sided channels about "revolution" or the violent coup in Ukraine. The only things worth watching were some mentioned names and terms that could be further investigated. The point about the Chernobyl catastrophe as deliberate act by some Soviet minister to hide Duga radar inefficiency is fictional and does not match the facts. The system operated from July 1976 to December 1989 and had two operational radars, one near Chernobyl and Chernihiv in Ukraine, the other in eastern Siberia. Disabling of access and examination of a just one radar with no less than deliberate nuclear disaster with all consequences to hide malfunctioning of whole system which worked for three years after the catastrophe is delusional.
One of the worst and most misleading "documentaries" that I have watched.
