    profession — sea mammal hunter dir. Anna Koryakovtseva, 26min, 2025, Russia, source: FilmFreeway
    Hunting sea animals is dangerous! Especially in autumn, when the sea off the coast of Chukotka is already cold. A whale capsizes the boat, or a walrus pierces it with its tusks, and you might not return to shore... But if you return with a catch, the whole village rejoices. After all, coastal Chukchi can no longer live without walrus meat or whale blubber. That's how they've lived for centuries. Once, the Chukchi were divided into two peoples. The tundra people now roam with reindeer, while the coastal Chukchi still follow their ancestors' traditions. However, they may still need reindeer for food. Reindeer blood, for example, is used in the so-called "green porridge," one of the favorite dishes of coastal Chukchi, along with mantak (whale skin) and yukola. Deer antlers are also placed on the graves of those who have gone to the "third sky." However, the spirit of the deceased ancestor may return in the form of a newborn child. Coastal Chukchi believe that everything around them is alive; that the spirits of these places protect them... And there is nothing better than their native coast — and, of course, the sea — in the world! Because they feel so good here that it's like a fairy tale.
