Surprised no one has commented, so I will.
That’s a great link. -
Well, I suppose that she could be a Russian ex-pat living in Ukraine… but likely she’s Ukrainian. Though I imagine “Ukraininan on a motorcycle” sounds a lot less racy…
Normally I’d gloss this sort of thing… especially considering that it seems I’m turned into a Russian on a regular basis by people who should know better. But in this instance, where the subject matter is a great big radioactive turd left smack-dab in the middle of Ukraine, compliments of the CCCP, I’m a bit put off by the mis-attribution.

Cool link. I love the photos.

I’ve seen this before (and recently, not just the first version from last year); this is a great documentary and well worth the time, even if you’re on dial-up.
