Evgeny Kalachikhin
Beyond the polar circle in Northern Russia, a few dozen people still live in their traditional houses surrounded by water, stone and sand. Cut off from vital infrastructure, almost forgotten by regional governance, these people have to cope with their everyday struggle. Their hamlets seem to head toward the fate of so many other villages all over Russia: a slow but inevitable extinction.
