  • Filmmaker Mike Magidson, a native Californian living in Paris, and French anthropologist Nastassja Martin have just landed in Petropavlovsk, the capital of Kamchatka. Over recent years, Nastassja has developed close ties with an Even family, former reindeer herders, and today, she is back to introduce her baby daughter to them.
    From the capital, they set off on a 700km trip through majestic inhospitable landscapes at -30°, crossing a mining and military zone and completing the last stretch on snowmobiles. Finally, they arrive in Tvaian, a hunting camp cut off from all means of communication. Daria and her family live there in tune with their traditions and in a spiritual relationship with their environment.

    I started crying when she chanted. It was like her way of preserving a song and dance on top of asking the ancestors to give her sister a safe trip back to her home. We can not lose the ancestors of our lives. Keep their memories alive in your heart. These are people that know how to be patient and happy. Even if their lives can be harsh.

      It shows us that even with all the amenities we have it doesn't guarantee happiness. if you pay attention you see the family unity and eternal gratitude they have for what nature provides for their family. We all could learn a valuable life lesson from this documentary. I was moved by this video it reminds me our ancestors roots and how survival was the name of the game, nowadays people lose they're minds if the UA-cam stops working!

I dont think i could do it in these cold snowy winters tho, i understand the quiet man of the family that used to live in society with abunch of lost people fending for nothing but money to eat, sleep and survive in a concrete souless world. Blessings to all our ancestors that lived like this since the beginning of time up until a 100 years ago. ✌🏾🙏🏾❤️

      It's cruel to have them out in such freezing conditions.

    Great documentary. This is an area similar to where I live in the Monashee Mountains of BC. Same trees, same fish, same reindeer (we call them caribou), same winter climate. The only differences are that I have electricity from the grid, and live only 20 kms from the nearest village and have internet. Last winter it was -32 Celsius at night at this time, and by February there was 108 cm of snow on the ground. This winter is so far been so warm and snowless, barely freezing at night. I sold my snow mobile and snow blower back in November (haha).

      You're right - I'm sorry that they are pretty much living off the land, but - I think there seems to be no excuse to keep the dogs in these very harsh conditions. In some states, it is illegal to keep a dog chained up in the cold, where it doesn't have a shelter.
      That is just pure ignorance, stupidity, or cruelty.
      Not watching this foolishness / and or cruelty... ( FYI - I went to the comments and saw your suggestion, then went directly to watch for the outdoor dogs - horrendous. Did not watch the rest.)

    Interesting/informative/entertaining. Excellent still-motion photography pictures 📷. Enabling viewers to better understand what the orator was describing. Special thanks to residents sharing personal information pertaining to daily life experiences. Making this documentary more authentic and possible. 😉. Fascinating viewing the fin deer herders at work-!!!😲. Looks like an adult male would provide a good number of meals for a family.
