for the holidays and head for the tundra. represents the third generation of a new breeding family he too went to a boarding school before graduating as a vet. back home in the tundra he found a wife and now has three children. he's taking his eldest son daniel and his nephew from the boarding school to visit their grandfather for a short summer break before good as day the main annual festival.

meanwhile other parents also pick up their kids for the annual school holidays. with hello hello there we want to take her back for the holidays ok but please be back here on the seventh yet because i'd like to talk to his father now has is behaving badly and said he doesn't want to come back after the holidays but he has two. children from the tundra have always gone to boarding school every autumn. they know that they went to see their parents again for some time. the red north newspapers editor in chief says he's also a child of the tundra that's how he translates his knee and its name.

was chieftain of the seashell tribe risen from the dead son of a shrew ground son of a polar bear a great grandson of a walrus in russian uncles the other he says he was raised from the dead because when he was born in a rawhides tent he was clinically dead his father had given up on him but his mother and grandmother saved his life and brought him. here. to them off to he escaped from boarding school. in second grade i ran away from the boarding school with two my friends we ran to the tundra we spent a day and night travelling back to my keep iraq tent i was always telling them to hold on there's the gemini and the top of the roof he called his article why our children die is the dramatic story of peoples escaping from schools and heading to the tundra. we searched for them for so long we used off roaders we walked

around the whole tundra they actually died very close to the village they were frozen. hello. these classmates a jealous they still don't know if their own parents will come to take them home girls always have more stuff than boys the last class before school holidays begin . the day we're going to draw our beloved tundra our home ok. this picture will become real as soon as. before heading toward day they have to gather the hood chaotically scattered around

the tundra. it seems an impossible task but little by little the children healthy adults to round up the animals. the head of the family watches from the sidelines general overseeing his. young son and if you copy everything he does. is underway to restock a team of dead which will later lead the entire. life like this the old deer have to move on and younger ones take their place if he has a camp temperament then he's good for women to race with if he's fast we can years them.

at the boarding school the children are given a basic high school education studying. the same subjects as regular schools like math physics and chemistry there are also some special disciplines like local graffiti and culture so they remember the tundra and their roots. down in. these goals seldom think of the tundra they're taken from their homes every year and becoming attached to the towns and villages where life is much more comfortable. so there's that there is no t.v. set in around ten i don't know i get bored there you have to work all day long take care of the deer and prepare. what did not go. well you get out of the way you

stop spinning around get out of here. why can't you find something to do. a well known yes writer and teacher has created her own alternative education system for the children of the tundra. this is a part of the children's residential community part of the town where they live study and play. their ambition was only realized after a lifetime of personal struggle for fifteen years she lived in a medical life taking care of dia she believes that a good education should be based on the essential skills needed to survive in the arctic far north. more energy come on. you. there's plenty of work here for everyone.

well most of our constitution clearly says that indigenous children must have a free education but it doesn't say free life care what the school gives them a whole team of security guards maids to wash and clean the dishes everything's done for them so they face life with no idea about how to do ordinary things. they don't have that knowledge when they leave school. in boarding schools the teachers often observe a change in children's attitudes during the seventh or eighth grades. things separated from the family house a lot of connotations he's gradually being separated from his roots that is across their last generation and when he graduates from schools will have to decide between going on to higher education or back to the tundra which will he choose he's already been separated from his home but he hasn't been able to establish roots here either.

you know it's violinists from the school of long lived to tell and stayed with their own families. that was a mistake let's do it again from the beginning of the park but don't need it in the middle. one two three. four of them the petrol motion is not about life in the tundra but a famous musical composition by car bomb. the tundra just means mosquitoes will live in town and go to different cities for vacations i don't understand how people can live there it's very cold and dead take you have to wake up early in the morning every day to home. i have to go to the hundreds of ski there's plenty of snow in the town for most of

the year. isn't impressed by the city landscape his family only feel at home here in the tundra every spring the fleet of high speeds ledges. not involved. this lifestyle has remained unchanged for a hundred years. today still use the same technology but. i sometimes go by the old cemetery where the really big ones bush it's you.

hearing the tundra. lived through the most traumatic experience when her daughter died. the tragedy changed she stopped living for herself and became foster mother to twenty five orphans she took them out of the orphanages and created a small community that she called the land of hope. everything she knows about raising children in the tundra came to from nature. then with the with the and the first thing that i notice it was that the whole landscape was a model the circle what they do with that was a look that small lake is round was about the other one is round as well what big you would be this ill and children's township is a circular shape you have hit in fact that it's don't like corners where you will.

in a childhood foster and it was often punished for being naughty by being made to stand on her own in a corner. she's hated the idea of corners ever since. she believes the children should study close to the pneumatic reach their parents fall in to avoid prolonged separation. it's a semi mobile school providing a first stage elementary education it's not just for adoptive children but for any kids whose parents bring them from nearby villages or by magic encampments ok. one cut to the q ok children today we're going to draw fish or better still one semi-circle and another one well connected megan tail and a half. and a thin. parents are able to take their children home from school any time they choose. life shows that if you simply want to teach children to read and write

and you don't have to pull them away from the sledge is that can be too big a sacrifice. and i mean all indigenous people not just the net's. children continue their studies in a row height tent at a special field teacher takes the list. to me three course but as a student teacher that is already working. he teaches russian language and literature to yvonne and galina as dear family. they hunt for their amex the rabbit hides behind the tree and next to the tree was a boy and the hunters ask if you had seen him rabbit with a long ears ears right. now. i want my children next to me i want to feel safe how could i said my child to

boarding school i want to be able to sleep at night after that. it eat sleep play. me speak your language. programs in documentaries in arabic it's all here on all t.v. reporting from the world talks books fifty yard p. interviews intriguing stories for you. in trying. to find out more visit our big all teeth dog called. in jack and now the significant amount of small arms and to these already extremely volatile region of the porous borders. what kind of a petition could it have not only for syria but also for the rest of the region

it's a power game i mean if the opposition gets more weapons which can really strategically hurt the government it could change to the equation very rapidly. book right from the same playbook first straight shooters and i think picture. on a reporter's twitter and on instagram. posts. to me in the most slopes on the last six. months. little.

mucked up you got me a little bit. ok liz. liz . as the field teaches. teaching. school to the dia. travelling community has. three hundred. with

a little help from several families. and. they'll soon go into the tundra to meet with. teachers the children. demonstrate some of the practical skills that nomads need. in just a few minutes. here above the arctic circle conditions can be extreme the ways of life learning and even child. specialist with the flying medical service has taken an emergency call. and treatment of. the radio. condition is critical at any moment the baby weighing just five hundred grams could be. used to these

extreme conditions and has even delivered a baby. she knows she has to make patients. she's also acutely aware of the. serious risks. it doesn't matter if it's a weekend holiday we're just happy when they're back in the tundra. we worry about them and that everyone we want them to get back home safe and healthy. let's hear a name gallina. have a seat. she just started her vacation. don't forget to take your stuff. to you how he left her absolutely.

everything turned out well the expectant mother was taken to hospital in time this aircraft flies several medical missions in a road each day it carries pregnant women to hospital for routine checks and for deliveries after the babies are born of the mothers are ready to be discharged they return to their tents the same way they left courtesy of the flying medical service you. moved his team from one nomadic camp to another. they have to cover one hundred fifty kilometers if they're to reach the celebrations in time. but there's

a surprise in still. small for straight from the. tide i'm afraid it fell behind it was lost. the whole herd can't stop for the sake of one baby. it's getting late and they still have to pitch their tent men women and children all have their parts to play of the process everyone knows their role it's almost done by the time they finish. in the morning despite strong winds grandchild go in search of the runaway phone. drives off the main pos to look for fresh tracks but searching this way could take a very long time and so he decides to change tactics. finally they find the runaway

the timid is far from happy after spending the night alone he's afraid of everything as a hunter. knows that it's not. grandpa watches silently no word of criticism when the child misses. it's almost as though the animal is deliberately. skills like this clustering. patience and persistence he's the chief results. will have to be tamed. when it's hungry i feed the deer by hand after

a couple of weeks. and ask. here are the cards. i'm sixty six degrees. sixty six degrees eleven minutes eleven minutes twenty five point five seconds twenty five point five seconds. veterinary technician. is also from the tundra. with their deer. i see em i say i'm lead the way we'll use them as our guide until we get to land he moved to the village after leaving. graduating from the farming academy but sometimes he has regrets. i live in a village i have an apartment but from time to time i wake up at the weekend don't feel like staying inside if i had my own course i could do things there i'm to the

tundra. i was raised up there. different groups helping to preserve the population. for some time. and his house decides to drop in. to his friends family. each time i come back to the tundra i just have to catch. you have to do it. i don't mind. i'm going to catch it.

he's a real catch. family now has just a short distance to go before they reach their destination. minutes paid no attention to clocks everything is time by the sun. sunrise with the crack of dawn and go back to wrist after the sun sets. one of. only nine months old. boiled fish for dinner and of course the. slices of. beat served cold. but his parents needn't worry he could feed himself perfectly well.

changed in the past twenty years he has twelve grandchildren. and he's a grandfather as well. twenty years ago this film about such a case that a test of the range. was shot at nineteen ninety three. who. i just saw my mom. was always trying to sort out the mess our group was quite big about ten tenth's and she used to tell everyone calmly that whenever a nomad's ten stands out it has to be clean at all times when. i was in the army and when they filmed. i recognized uncle alex

say. my grandma and my mom. said his family finally made it to the reindeer festival in time. to. cut it out. there's always something to see in these national competitions only the cream of the creek can we. bring new faces and hear us. the undisputed high point of the whole event is a trace. and his grandson came to cheer on the family friend and his did come up.

but this time sadly the. place. the whole family gathers for the holiday in an ordinary apartment not in a tent. this is not in. the eldest daughter. there's your set up. there are now this is my me. they're my treasure the main one over the table they discussed the latest hot topic once again do they have to separate the kids from the family or does no medicaid education have a future after the holiday they'll have to send the children back to the boarding school my child is going into first grade very soon and that's why i'm nervous there is no real routine or proper discipline at that nomadic school but here they have a daily schedule practice lunch dinner wake up time bedtime. but you don't room every day when i just make your own school put the kids in a roll high tent once in

a while and teach them there informally i don't know my grandchildren study an outsider in a cold tent i wouldn't be able to send my child anywhere at the moment i mean if i lived in the tundra. this is how they co-exist to different points of view to opinions rather like this traditional stick tugging contest. the next day the circle is complete. and his son leo get to the camp but push further on to the north. no a load because daniela. are already back at their boarding school.

oh. music is our job the army our destiny and these soldiers don't know what real arms look life. to conquer the world. china and korea try to imitate them america and europe cry bravo absolutely sick sick. meanwhile back in russia military artists are losing their grip on the audience it's a. bit young people especially soldiers they seem to differ from.
