-71°C | Blood, Bone, and Ice: A Story of Extreme Survival

At -71°C, the world doesn’t just freeze—it shatters.

In the heart of the Siberian Taiga, the Sakha (Yakut) people live at the absolute edge of human endurance. This is not a story of words, but of rhythm: the rhythmic swing of an axe, the heavy crunch of snowshoes, and the steady pulse of a family keeping the fire alive against an indifferent winter.

Blood, Bone, and Ice is a silent, four-chapter documentary experience. In a place where breath turns to stone, silence is the only language that matters.

The Chapters:
I. The Hardening: As the mercury drops to historic lows, the family seals their fortress.

II. The Harvest: The brutal daily labor of pulling water from the river and fuel from the forest.

III. The Siege: A three-day blizzard pushes the shelter—and the human spirit—to the breaking point.

IV. The Pulse: Emerging from the white darkness to reclaim life in the coldest inhabited place on Earth.

Filmmaker’s Note:
This film was created to be an immersive sensory experience. There is no voiceover and no dialogue. We recommend watching in 4K with high-quality headphones to experience the visceral soundscape of the Arctic—from the metallic "tinkling" of diamond dust to the terrifying roar of a Siberian blizzard.

Experience the silence. Respect the cold.
