Deep within this remote landscape, facing the most hostile conditions on earth, 300 people inhabit the small Bakhtia. There are only two ways to reach this outpost, by helicopter and by boat. In this wilderness there are no phones, no running water, no medical aid. The people live according to their own values and cultural traditions, which have remained unchanged for centuries.
