synopsis
Céline Clanet travelled for five years on the Kola Peninsula; an Arctic territory located in the extreme northwest of Russia. Kola is a harsh land, where the inhabitants have to put up with a two-month sunless winter, and a whole year in an arctic climate. The book Kola accompanies the reader in this fragmented land, divided between heavy mining industries, secret military activities and reindeer herding by an indigenous people; all separated by invisible borders.
Christian Garcin was inspired by the characters photographed by Céline Clanet to write a fictional short story where destinies and history intersect.
