Lake Baikal is a World Heritage site. Nicknamed "the pearl of Siberia", it has always been the pride of Russia.

A handful of men and women live beside Lake Baikal all year round. The atmosphere of the lake works its magic on these people. They're attached to their traditions and to these waters which they depend on for survival. But in winter Baikal is frozen.

Boris, Vitalie and Anatolie were born here. These hardy men consider themselves to be Siberian first, Russian second. Just over 100,000 people live on the shores of the lake, scattered in isolated villages.
