⌛️Over the past eight years, the war in the Donbass has become a terrible routine. In Donetsk, the largest city in the region, everyone knows very well how to act after another shelling by the Ukrainian side. For children born after 2014, war is an integral part of life. They draw tanks in class. A school bus may come under targeted fire at any moment.
For eight years, the Donbass has been pleading for help. Today it will become part of Russia. The new Russian regions will feel the support and protection of a huge country. Agreements on the DPR, LPR, Kherson and Zaporozhye regions joining Russia are to be signed in Moscow.
In the Donbass, the citizens hope that the time of fear is over. We have made a series of documentaries about the years of Ukrainian terror in the Donbass, which, undoubtedly, no one will forget.
▪️ Donbass War: Summer 2014 (2022)
This is a documentary about how it all began. In 2014, the Donbass, a large industrial region, did not accept a coup in Kiev. In response, the Kiev authorities attacked Donetsk and Luhansk regions. The shelling of peaceful towns and villages began.
▪️ Lugansk: Road to Independence 2022-2014 (2022)
The stories of the residents of Lugansk, whom Ukraine began shelling back in 2014. In this documentary you’ll see the first wedding in the LPR. The bride, Julia, collected her bouquet in a basement. It was the safest place in the city. During the wedding photo shoot, the guests had to run away and hide from the Ukrainian shelling. The wedding photos show the bride and groom surrounded by volunteers with machine guns.
▪️ Donbass. Yesterday, today, tomorrow (2021)
Terrible footage of war crimes committed by the Ukrainian regime. The bodies of 36 civilians were removed from a mass grave near the Lugansk village of Verkhneshevyrevka. Many with severed heads. All of them died at the hands of their Ukrainian captors in the summer of 2014.
▪️ Ukraine: Heading East (2022)
You will not wish even on your worst enemy to live through the terror the people of the Donbass have experienced. At any moment, your house can be destroyed, and your relatives can be killed. The film is about how people abandoned everything and fled to Russia seeking peace and security.

❗️A historical moment. Vladimir Putin signed treaties with the heads of the DPR, LPR, and Kherson and Zaporozhye regions to become parts of Russia.
‘People have made their choice - an unambiguous choice. This is the will of millions of people,’ the president said. He claimed that Russia would not betray them: ‘We will defend our land by all means.’ Vladimir Putin promised to rebuild all the destroyed cities and towns, to develop enterprises and infrastructure.
Putin addressed the mothers and families of soldiers in Donbass: ‘Our compatriots in Ukraine have seen with their own eyes what the ruling circles of the so-called West are preparing for all mankind. Foreign countries want to see Russia not as free, but as a mob of soulless slaves. ‘We will protect our values and our homeland from the West,’ Putin promised.

‘Never, ever! After this, to make peace or return to Ukraine – never!’ says Nina Regina, a resident of the village of Donetskoe, LPR. Her house was completely destroyed after shelling by the Ukrainian Armed Forces. For this reason, Nina can no longer imagine life under the Ukrainian flag.
For 8 years, the Ukrainian army and nationalists have been destroying Donbass. They showed no mercy for the old generation, nor women and children. ‘Why? What wrong did we do? That we wanted to speak our Russian language?’ ask the civilians.
Over the long years of bombing, people have not lost hope of seeing peaceful skies again. Today, the DPR, LPR, Zaporozhye and Kherson regions have become part of Russia. The lives of these people will change - now they will be protected. Our video explains why the people have been waiting for this moment so much.

Bearing a Lode
‘Gold miners, leave our land! They get rich at the expense of our resources, and what do we get? Nothing! All they leave is polluted water!’
Pedro Fernandez, resident of El Canto, Mexico, is seriously concerned about his homeland. He says it’s in danger because of the Canadian company Almaden Minerals, which acquired a large chunk of local land.
Mexico is the world leader in silver production and one of the largest producers of gold. That’s what attracted the company. But locals say Canada's gold-miners treat them and their land irreverently. Farmers complain that their activities pollute water, spoil the soil and kill the animals.
On the other side of the barricades are pro-mine villagers. They say their community has benefitted from the project, as the company has provided jobs, healthcare and schools.
What will tip the scales? Watch the film Bearing a Lode and hear the arguments of both sides. What do you think of the situation?

The Mogao Caves, which carry ancient frescoes on the walls and statues of Buddha, are one of the oldest Buddhist monuments.
The first cave was carved directly into the rock in the fourth century by a Buddhist monk. After another thousand years, there were so many caves that Mogao has become the largest temple complex. Nearby was the Great Silk Road - the main trade route of the East. Pilgrims from all over the country used it to visit the shrine.

This Egyptian woman pretended to be a man for 40 years to raise her daughter.
Sisa Abu Daooh was 20 when her husband died. Pregnant, with no source of income, she refused to remarry. There were no job opportunities for an illiterate widow, so she decided to become a man herself. Sisa dressed, walked and learned to talk like a man. She needed to provide for her child.
The woman was ready to take any manual work. When we filmed her in 2015, she was in her 60s, ran a small kiosk in Luxor and worked as a shoe shiner.
On the International Day of Older Persons, we want to show you Sisa’s unique story. Watch our documentary The Untamed Shrew about a selfless Egyptian who sacrificed everything for her child.

One and a half million children in Somalia are starving.
At the same time, the country is experiencing the worst drought in 40 years. Water sources have dried up, crops have died, there is no food. Children die from malnutrition. The forecasts are disappointing: there will be no rain in the coming months. Food is also running out in the refugee camps. People go there hoping to get help. These photos were taken in one of the camps.
According to UN data, the country is getting billions of dollars in aid. At the same time, it is simply impossible to bring humanitarian aid to a number of areas of Somalia. The areas are ruled over by terrorists, and they don’t let anyone in.
The UN estimates that many countries will face hunger in 2022 due to climate change. Among them are the poorest countries on the planet: Afghanistan, Ethiopia, South Sudan, Yemen. However, the climate is becoming different not only there. For example, in rich Norway, Arctic glaciers are melting due to high temperatures.
See the Heat episode of No Way Back series to learn how the weather can drastically change people’s lives.

‘It was interesting to see how I’d react to what I hate most – the cold.’
Freediving champion Andrey Matveenko typically dives into the warm seas, but once decided to challenge himself by taking a plunge into icy waters.
Freediving is a challenge in itself: diving into the pitch-black abyss on a single breath, enduring intense pressure, staying in control. But some go even further by diving into icy waters. To illustrate the difference between freediving in warm and cold seas, the record regular freediving depth is an extraordinary 130 metres, but under the ice, it’s just 75. This year, Andrey will not participate in the World Championship as the Russian sportsmen were disqualified.
Watch Freeze Divers - an inspiring story of human endurance and see the breathtaking footage of sportsmen diving deep in subzero water. How do you feel stepping out of your comfort zone?

Mexico: indigenous tribe is on the brink of extinction
Meet the Yaqui indigenous people of Mexico, who have a long and rich past. There are 40,000 of them and their survival is under threat. But why so?
The threats are due to their land. Recently, drug cartels noticed the Yaqui territory is a lucrative path to smuggle drugs to the U.S. But the cartel believes the Yaquis stand in the way of their business prospering. There already was a conflict in which the drug dealers killed several locals.
Another problem the Yaquis face is the drying Yaqui river. Though the tribe is the legal owner of half the water in the river basin, much of it is redirected to feed agricultural industries. ‘It’s an injustice, it’s a great sadness to see our river without water,’ said César Cota, a local farmer. ‘That is where animals live, our medical plants, our reeds live.’
With little water, widespread poverty and no farm work available, younger Yaquis have begun to migrate to nearby cities and don’t return. All these problems have brought the Yaqui culture to the brink of extinction.
By the way, in Puebla, another Mexican area, people also suffer from uninvited guests. Here, gold miners, according to locals, leave behind polluted water, spoiled soil and dead animals. Our documentary Bearing a Load discusses this issue, watch it here.

Elijah Harrod became a woman, but then got his gender back. ‘When I was into the transgender lifestyle, I thought that was love. All I wanted, when I was in that lifestyle, was all about lust,’ the man says. Now he stands for traditional values. Elijah, along with a group of evangelists, walks the streets and urges people to change their minds: ‘Remember that the bible says that homosexuality is a sin.’
In the West people are being told from childhood that there is nothing wrong with sex reassignment. Transvestites perform lewd acts in front of young children and are shown on children’s channels. Parents think it’s normal.
How have moral standards come to be abandoned in the West? Watch the premiere of Pride and Piety to find out.
