Hey! I am Pierre-Christian Brochet. I am French and for 25 years I have been crossing that huge country called Russia. What thrills me the most is the richness and variety of the cultures which are spread across the territory. That’s what I’m going to tell you about in very short films that portray one of the many faces of Russia’s cultures.

There are 140 million of Russian citizens living on the vast territory of Russia. And 110 million of them are actually Russians. Russia differ from region to region. In the north of the Komi Republic near the polar circle in the west of Ural live the Russian old-believers Pomors.

It’s very important for them to preserve their culture and to remember the destiny of their ancestors. Also they preserved a lot from the old Russian culture as well as the regulations and the sacrament of old church.

In the summer they celebrate a wonderful holiday Gorka, where you can see something that has disappeared from the life of Russian in other regions.

We express our special gratitude to the Ministry of Culture, Tourism and Archival Affairs of the Komi Republic and personally to Sergey Emelyanov

We thank the residents of the Ust-Tsilma district and all participants of the Ust-Tsilma Gorka holiday.
