КАК НЕМЦЫ ПРЕВРАТИЛИ ЗАБРОШЕННУЮ РУССКУЮ ДЕРЕВНЮ В РАЙ

How three German families transformed the ruins of the Russian hinterland into a home In this film, we travel to the abandoned village of Velema in the Kaluga region—officially a single-person home, but in reality, the village had stood empty and dilapidated for many years. But suddenly, several families from Germany moved here to start from scratch. They weren't looking for anything exotic—only peace, quiet, land, and the opportunity to revive a forgotten Russian way of life. The Germans restore old huts, build houses, bake bread, engage in crafts, and show that village life can be different—honest, tame, and vibrant. This is the story of how foreigners breathed life into the Russian hinterland, long since written off the map. Why did these Germans choose Russia? What does real life look like in a place without shops, neighbors, or roads? And can the small village of Velema become a model of revival for the entire country? Welcome to the place where an abandoned place is being transformed into a home.
