On the Edge of Time: Male Domains in the Caucasus

Synopsis

The Caucasus exists on the very edge time. This mountainous region has a notorious history of ethnic conflicts and devastating wars. The Caucasus people are said to possess dark and mystical souls. Rich in natural resources such as oil, gas and gold, it is a region better known as the Silk Route of the 21st century. At the same time, the Caucasus also contains some of the most breath-taking scenery you are likely to find. German filmmaker Stefan TOLZ spent almost two years in this seemingly impenetrable post-Soviet land, learning its languages and partaking in routine and not-so-routine life.
