The films are based on photos taken while travelling through different areas of Chukotka. We tried to combine in them music and artistic production, ideas and feelings, - all those great emotions which attach us to the beauty of this territory. Each film is unique, unlike the other, but they are all united by the wonders of Chukotka, by the miracles of its nature. First there was a plain slideshow made of pictures taken while travelling in Chukotka in summer of 2004. It was shown on the opening ceremony of our art exhibition which was also called "Chukotka - the Territory of Beauty", held in Moscow on the 17th of December 2004. Very soon we became being flooded by admired feedback and requests to make a copy.
As a result we made a series of slideshows gradually transformed
to being named as photofilms.

There is a Territory, lost in time and in frosty lands of the North. Its magnetic energy attracts generations of the scientists and travellers. But it hides inside not only its treasures, the misteries of discovery and severe climate. It is full of radiating Beauty. Whoever came here even once in the life and immersed himself to the endless horisons, will love this Territory of Beaity.

Film second
Eyes to eyes
 |  |
It is about dogs and not only...
In each film we tried to break up stereotypes, to find a new way of understanding the reality,
to show that Chukotka is not only the land of Chukchi people, whose lives and traditions
are typically in the center of attention. But aren't dogs a symbol of Chukotka as well?
They have always lived on this land, they have created their own world, unseparable from the world of people.
And, speaking about dogs, we were trying to say more...
These are the same eyes that look through time,
through their generations,
through winds, snowstorms and frosts.
Everything was changing for many times:
flags and governments,
ships and airplanes,
Russians and Americans,
shops and money.
Everything passed by them.
They were invariable,
simple and necessary.
Their way was irreproachable.
They have done everything to keep their eyes
looking into our's eyes
and to this eternal Chukotka's landscape.

Film third
Lights of fall
 |  |
Lights of our destiny, filelds of energy,
lights of fires, lights everywhere...
They have once been here,
but we will neither know them,
nor learn their feelings,
nor see their faces.
What could they think of watching the red sparks of fire
in the autumn leaves,
smelling the dry wind coming from the mountains,
and saying goodbye to summer?
Perhaps, we will feel the same,
but nobody will ever know this...
What happens next?
Is there anything behind that mountain peaks,
anything behind the death?
Perhaps, there is and it's going to happen anyway...
It is the Light of Fall...

Film fourth
A land with atomic heart
 |  |
Here, behind the Arctic Circle,
among the sparkling white space of the North
there is a land of gold
and territory of extremely low temperatures.
Here beats the atomic heart
of the Bilibino Atomic Station,
and thousands of wires deliver energy
to the city and to all the region.
