5G – The Untold Story is a documentary offering a powerful investigation into the hidden health consequences of the radiation from 5G technology. Through compelling personal accounts and scientific analysis, the film sheds light on the real impacts of the 5G rollout on people’s health. Within days of 5G antennas being activated near their homes, healthy people developed insomnia, headaches, heart palpitations and more.

This is the first film to document the real-life health consequences of 5G.

In 2025, Stockholm was named the city offering the best 5G experience in Europe. But behind the positive headline, lies a more troubling reality. Numerous individuals, previously in good health, began to experience serious symptoms after 5G antennas were installed near their homes.

The documentary draws on groundbreaking research by former Professor Lennart Hardell, a world-renowned epidemiologist and oncologist, who conducted a series of case studies on health effects on people living close to 5G antennas in collaboration with Mona Nilsson from the Swedish Radiation Protection Foundation. The studies conclude that people exposed to 5G rapidly develop the “microwave syndrome”, previously described as an effect from microwave radiation, and that 5G leads to very high radiation exposure. These studies, the first in the world to scientifically document health effects from real life 5G exposure, present a disturbing conclusion: 5G acts as a toxic agent.

5G – The Untold Story challenges the silence of those in power. 5G was deployed without precaution and previous safety studies with the complicity of public health authorities. These institutions, the film suggests, appear to prioritize industrial interests over public safety.
