A documentary about the Khanty people. At the same time, the film is also a study about cultural identity in a globalizing world. Every autumn a helicopter flies over the remote marshes and bogs of Western Siberia. Native children who have grown up surrounded by forests are taken away. They enter a new world of school uniforms, an unfamiliar Russian language, education and knowledge.
