Synopsis
Ysyakh (ISIAH – meaning ‘ABUNDANCE’ in Turkish) is the largest traditional celebration of the Saha people, bringing together tens of thousands of participants and visitors every year. However, behind these two-day festivities lie the year-long preparations, dedication, hopes and personal stories of the people who make the event possible. This documentary offers a unique perspective through the eyes of those who bring Ysyakh Tuimaada to life.
