Men's Choice

This film tells us three stories about men extracting natural gas in Bovanenkovo on the Yamal Peninsula. There are also three heroes – young assistant driller, successful boiler room chief engineer and an old plumber. For all of them working in Gazprom is the only opportunity to earn real money because there is no high paid job in their hometowns so they are forced to leave their families for a long time to be able to support them. These men do their hard work literally at the edge of the world. Winter lasts more than 260 days a year, and even locals (the Nenets people) migrate to the south during that time. Frost, snowstorms, strong winds and separation from families... They have to decide whether earned money is worth all the problems with families. Each of them makes his own choice.
