LOCAL
STRANGERS

On the map of Russia there are places populated by ethnic groups from Europe. For example, Lipki village in the Smolensk region, where the Gagauz people of Moldova live with their whole families or the German national district once populated entirely by ethnic Germans. What happens when people of one ethnic community try to take root in a foreign land? What do they consider to be their home? You will find answers to these and other questions
in our cross boarder multimedia project.
