✅«Азербайджан. Ветер над Каспием». К 35-летию независимости

Azerbaijan has evolved from the first independent republic, proclaimed on May 28, 1918, to a modern center of global politics and green energy. Today, the country is transforming the harsh Caspian winds into eco-fuel, developing major offshore oil fields, and hosting key international forums. At the same time, Baku, known as the "Caspian Paris," carefully preserves the traditions of its ancestors—from ritual bonfires at the Maiden Tower to the ancient art of carpet weaving. How does the Baku metro work, and why is it called an underground treasure? What is housed in the museum beneath the world's tallest flagpole? And what is Azerbaijan like today—from theater schools and fashion houses to major sports arenas and world championships? This documentary by the Mir TV and Radio Company explores these topics. About the program Documentaries produced by journalists from the Mir TV and Radio Company commemorate memorable dates and events in the CIS countries and around the world.
