  • In Kazakhstan, the inhabitants have adapted to withstand all of nature's challenges. This film takes us into the centre of a snowstorm where thousands of travellers find themselves caught in an enormous traffic jam. We meet farmers who rely on hostile land. The Aral Sea, now completely dried out, has given place to a desert made up of sand, salt, and dust that's toxic to the inhabitants.
    Director : Philippe Lafaix

    When I watch this series I always think about the film crews. Where do they sleep? Do they bring food and water with them? How do they stay warm? Hats off to the staff who create this under harsh conditions.

And speaking of "Dems starting war in our military"...you do know that Republican presidents holds the record for most starting wars right? Personally, if you ask me, Republicans are idiots, Democrats are idiots...therefore, anyone that labeled themselves as "conservative/liberal" are idiots. How about we all just be an "American" instead of a sheep.
