Summary:

This is the homeland of the Nenets people, half of whom have settled in modern towns and villages much like this, where they have electricity and hot running water. But the other half are still out there to the frozen north carrying out their traditional way of life herding reindeer. And right now they're pushing their reindeer south on their winter migration towards the winter pastures.
