This is the trailer of Nikolay Evstifeev’s documentary “THE WINTER ROAD. The Land of Fierce…” about the sever work in Siberia’s Yakutia. Here you can see how hard ordinary people’s work can be in the hardest part of Siberia. The documentary won The Best Directing Award at The 17th Saint Anna Film Festival and The Best Cinematography Award at The 29th VGIK Film Festival. Btw, Anton Safronov was a camera man.
The documentary is about Yakutia, the sever land of truckers, gold miners, hunters, and oil industry workers. Extreme conditions are revealed in every capture. Survival at minus 50 degrees Celsius, the road on the frozen river, people’s attitude to nature, wild life… and PEOPLE without false manners and any compromises.

Yeah, I love beer, but it wasn’t the reason of republishing this video. That’s awesome snowy, cold, wild landscapes of Canada!
This video slideshow is pretty old. It was uploaded in 2008. However, the event depicted in pictures is more older. An ice storm happened in Switzerland’s Versoix on Jan. 29, 2005.
Thanks to a Facebook friend Pietro I found this video on YouTube. Just enjoy an incredible spectacle that can be called “The Day After Tomorrow Near Geneva”

There is an awesome Yakutian photographer, Masha Dubroskaya. Four years ago she started her journey of the life across South East Asia. She’s got beautiful travel pictures, many of them were published in popular travel magazines. She and her boyfriend Ajay have a blog TraveLiving.org, where, by the way, I found the above “snowy” video.
