Life With Siberian Nomads (Survival Documentary) | Real Stories

[@juliaisrussian316]

My grandmother was from Siberia. She was 89 when she passed away. I miss her so much!! I was born in Kazakhstan along with 6 other siblings. We moved to America 30 years ago. And to this day I remember my grandma talking about her life and how hard it was. I remember how she would always try and preserve food. She never threw food away. She ate garlic all the time and we kids back then hated that smell lol My grandma taught me how to read and write in Russian. I was in 2nd grade when she sat me down and strictly told me " you will learn how to read and write". I did just that. Lol

[@inspiredbynatureinspiredby5586]

See how awesome Grandmothers are😊

Kate Humble by name, humble by nature. It's great that she has an understanding of their way of life. Especially as a wildlife presenter. Watching animals being slaughtered is not her usual gig...

[@wifemomteacherlife7648]

What a beautiful culture and people. I hate the thought that these cultures won’t be around forever if big companies have anything to say about it. These people deserve to live the life they know and love just as much as anyone else! I am absolutely amazed by the strength and tenacity of the Nenet people. ❤️

[@mellyayble]

I did not have high hopes for this documentary, I thought it was going to be really boring, but wow! I was so wrong. this was incredibly interesting. what a simple but fulfilling way of life. what a sweet family too. I really enjoyed this glimpse into their life

[@bharatbshetty]

Exactly

[@SavannahVu1985]

Well said. It was a small glimpse into their lives but incredibly interesting and informative. She did an amazing job whilst being very respectful.

[@t9t9t9t9t9]

actually you were right lmao, this was boring.

[@antonioimperato3490]

the only boring is her the one she talking

[@TheMisskaitlyn98]

This was such a refreshing documentary. For the first time it felt like the person doing the documenting actually immersed themselves fully and enjoyed every part. So often it feels like an intrusion of privacy and reeks of privilege and exploitation. But this was a beautiful masterpiece of real human interaction and learning of ones culture without intrusive entitlement. While still being educational. Will definitely be watching more from Kate! And wow, the Nenet were beyond amazing! It felt like home, watching them! Brutal tundra and hard work but a beautiful core of family, love, and tradition. I honestly and truly hope that the entire family are doing incredibly well! And that they have had the chance to choose their paths rather than it be chosen for them! This is super longer but this was such a great documentary!

[@kyitty]

i really love how Kate didn’t force her western opinions on them and understood how it’s part of their culture, i’m definitely watching more of Kate documentaries

If they want to eat raw meat that's fine with me, it's their culture, that's how they grew up. It would be different if they were eating human meat, but I don't know why people would call them savages for eating some raw rain deer meat.

[@ericaespinosa4030]

I think it’s amazing that they truly respect their animals. They utilise every last part of it...unlike most humans who happily abuse, or don’t think about what happens to an animal. Beautiful natural culture. I hope they manage to keep going.

[@lizadee5455]

Not witches we are a different breed truly I feel for these people so much it kills me to hear what is happening to them with the reindeer situation and all

Aww, they're so kind. Hopefully Kate will do another documentary again with these families. I'd love to know how they are doing now.

I do not know what to say, feel or think.. Happy and sad at the same time.. But nice to enjoy this documentary from my warm an comfortably home, and to get informed what is going on in Siberia. I have watched videos like :Happy people and reindeer normades etc,, in tundra here on youtube, and glad I found this video.. I feel sad about our human story in this world, in humans hunt for development after oil-gas-gold-wood-minerals etc, and to se the reality in humans search after profit and need for energy. Nature, clima and human races and culture are changing all over the world, and it has a big cost.. But that is reality and we have to face the so called development. Thank you Kate Humble for your documentations and interest for normades lives and showing this to us all. :-)

[@lorenaolana4838]

Hi Miss Kate! I am from Philippines but I became your fan watching your documentary films, I am amazed of your humility being with different people, at the same time you are so brave enough to face harsh people. You're amazing and fearless too. God bless you.

[@susanna8612]

And climet change will either kill them or make them all immigrate to some modern town or city where they all become depressed because of all the insanity and polution, materialism and pollution of corrupted greedy human minds around.

[@christinafidance340]

Plus, I saw in another documentary about Russia how many of their children get sent away to Russian boarding school and then some choose to leave the community. I mean, it’s nice to get an education but it also may end up being the undoing of their culture.

That was interesting. I saw her Mongolia nomads documentary, very interesting. She's a kind person. I feel for these people. I hope that the oil and gas industry does not totally destroy these people and their ancient way of life. It does make me sad. No matter where you are in the world, it's always some kind of industry that totally screws things up.

[@divinemabandosyt]

I am yet in the first part but upon hearing the nomad after loading his reindeer. I was sad but i am amazed how he love being nomads in the tundra. When he said life here is not life, having to slaughter reindeer all day long. Her prefers life in tundra which I totally understand. I wish the government will value their way of life and help them get back in tracks by giving them reindeer.

[@katrinajohnson3776]

How kind of them to allow you to enter into their lives and film them. Their beliefs, and abilities to exist under such extreme conditions are so admirable. They're extremely strong survivalists. Their way of dressing is so beautiful. It's lovely the way the family unit works through every day and night to coexist together. It's sad to see "civilization" affecting their future survival.

I live in Maryland, USA on a small boat, year round, on the Chesapeake Bay. I wish we all could just travel to each other’s countries and visit one another!That’d be pretty awesome. It’s winter where I am now (despite it literally only being 0•C right now and the water in the bay doesn’t even usually freeze!) but in the Summer time, we like to take our boat out and cruise up and down the east coast of the US. Hopefully someday, we can get a sailboat (we run on petrol currently) so that we can travel the world!

[@basiaszendrei1603]

We swapped community and simplicity for security, productivity and progress, in return we became unhappy and isolated from nature but we still yearn for what we lost. I think this documentary shows this very well, except Nenets didn’t get to choose, because modernity and market economy just sucks everything in on it’s way.

[@gergogaal568]

44:25 that piece of technology looks so out of place, but it is a good reminder. Sometimes it is hard to remember that these people live in the same era as us people who are cozied up in our warm houses in bustling cities and suburbs, where we don't live life on the edge anymore.

[@1972dsrai]

I can't imagine why anyone would want to live somewhere so cold, but to them its home and many I assume wouldn't want to live anywhere else. -30/40C is seen as warm. I hate it when it goes to -1C here in London.

[@Colvaen]

It is so sad to see the beginning of the end of a way of life that has nurtured these wonderful people. I know that in this modern world we believe that education of the children is very important but it is also the catalyst that is breaking the bond that has held these people together for millennia. When the children are separated from their families it interrupts the natural flow of information and history that is required to maintain this lifestyle and replaces it with foreign ways. It is driving a wedge between generations.
