“Snow Dogs” is the oldest kennel of northern sled dogs in Kamchatka. It is the brainchild of the famous Kamchatka mushers - Andrey and Anastasia Semashkin and their nine children. Their family has been participating and winning the world's longest dog sled race "Beringia" for over 10 years. Anya Semashkina is the youngest musher in Russia. Together with the main character and her father, we will visit remote villages of the indigenous peoples of Kamchatka and get acquainted with their traditions. What will a young fragile girl have to fight in the endless and cold tundra of Kamchatka, in the most important race of the peninsula?
