Polina (Marin's daughter), her friends Anya and Semyon (all students of the film school) were invited to India this Aug. They made a 'short film' in the 'Dhauladhar Kangra region'. The short-film aims to show India from a 'new perspective'. All the necessary ground logistics were well planned, They brought with them the required professional equipment. A Russian speaking Indian interpreter was deputed to assist them in the mountains. An ariel photographer for their drone footage had also been arranged. The project was supported by the local Gram panchayats, selected Homestays owners, and few other people. 

The idea was originally conceived and motivated by the thought of giving the young people an ideal opportunity to showcase their abilities and talent while promoting eco awareness. The film footage is currently being edited in Moscow and the final short-film "Saucha" is expected to be ready soon. It will be followed by a documentary next year. The young team deserves everyone's support and encouragement. See Film Snyopsis below. Details at L'ile des nomads.
