Would You Live in This Toxic, Closed-Off City?

Norilsk, Russia. Population 177,000. It's the northernmost city in the world — and the most toxic. Filmmaker Victoria Fiore spent two years trying to gain access to this closed-off city. After a dozen failed attempts at a visa, she was finally allowed to enter.

This film is part of The Atlantic Selects, a showcase of short documentaries from independent creators, curated by The Atlantic.
