Teriberka. At the edge of the earth 

#unknownrussia #russiannorth #teriberka
The half-abandoned village of Teriberka is located in the Kola district of the Murmansk region. In the best of times, about five thousand people lived here, and until 2009 it was a part of a border zone with limited access. The tourist boom happened after the release of the film Leviathan directed by Andrei Zvyagintsev, there immediately appeared a variety of hotels, hostels and recreation centers, oriented also at foreign guests, and prices in stores soared to the level of Moscow.
The incredible beauty of the tundra, the open Barents Sea, clear lakes, Battery Falls, as well as the Arctic hydrometeorological station are shown in the first part of this video. The second chapter is devoted to the cemetery of ships that once belonged to the local fishing collective farm. Also in the lens of our camera were numerous resettled houses, rusting cars left in the open air and abandoned farm buildings.
A separate chapter tells the sad story of a crumbling three-story school, and in the finale we got to the holiday, which was held at the recently restored house of culture and put a beautiful point in our new film “Teriberka. At the edge of the earth“. Happy viewing!
