Selected videos from my channel
The videos offer my work as a travel documentarian and storyteller. Each piece highlights exploring remote, culturally rich, and often misunderstood regions of Russia and beyond. From the freezing streets of Yakutia to the intimate traditions of Tatar and Chechen communities, I capture raw human stories, regional identity, and natural landscapes.
