Land of Ice Maiden (2015)
​
It is said they unearthed people who were over two meters tall. At Ukok plateau, the Ice Maiden once rested, now in a cultural museum in Gorno-Altaysk funded by none other than by energy titan GazProm. The prospective Power of Siberia gas pipeline still looms over mountain, hill, forest and river. Urmat Yntaev, World Guinness record holder for the longest throat singing session, leads us to the nearest corner store offering beer on tap. He sports his rare breed of horse that is white with brown spots. A game of Kok-Boru, a goat slain as the memory wanes.
