This is the village of Bakhtia in Siberia

Lady Luck decides to drop some knowledge on Zac and Biggs.  We review Happy People:  A Year in the Taiga.  This Werner Herzog documentary accounts for a year in the life of a trapper in Siberia.  We see him set traps, catch fish with a shotgun, abuse his dogs, and unwind with a spot of tea.  And all of this is under the shadow of bears--big...scary...evil...devious bears.  What else would you expect from the director of Grizzly Man?
