Synopse
The town of Mailuu-Suu was built in 1945 in the south of the Soviet Republic of Kyrgyzstan, to accommodate a processing plant for uranium mined in the area. The plant was replaced years later, when the mines were closed, by a light bulb factory. At the time, this large factory employed a third of the local population. However, since the demise of the Soviet Union, there have been massive personnel cuts on a regular basis. Tanya lost her job in the lamp factory in 2005. She was forced to find new ways of livelihood.
