He began to shout at me: "I’ll break your face now, we will meet you and we will meet you!" The chairman of the commission screamed from another corner: “Airplanes, you still do not know how the apartments are burning and cars! You have a child!

Report with a white sea

This year marks the opening of Belomorkanal - one of the large -scale Soviet construction projects, during which tens of thousands of people died. Today, the channel is used little, it is important primarily for people in small villages for gateways. The special corner of The Village Andrei Yakovlev and photographer Ekaterina Balaban at the request of Medusa looked, told and showed how these people live:

Now [70-year-old resident of the village of Leonid] Korbut receives an increase in pension as politically repressed (they are also considered children with repressed parents)-700 rubles a month. But this is still not enough for life. The pensioner is afraid to travel outside the village because the traffic cops can be caught-he did not have enough money to extend the insurance for his green IZH-2126. For the past five years, bailiffs have been writing four thousand rubles from Korbut’s account that he did not pay off the loan in time. When he gives himself completely, he certainly does not know - "It seems to be the next month." What he needed money for, Leonid also does not remember - "There is at least what to take it, it still will not be enough."
