The six groups are now working at their own (and very different) paces. Whereas some have almost finished the shooting and take advantage of not being on train for editing their films, others are still looking for the core and main elements of their documentaries.
Andrei's group (with Florian and Georgi) is quite happy its shooting day. Until now, none of the fast-food managers they had met wanted to give an interview, and here in Ulan-Ude two of them accepted.
It's always a bit of generalisation/cliché to say: “People of this city are nice”, but it proves to be right in Ulan-Ude, capitale of the province of Bouriatia. At least, we multiplied positive experiences. Not only the fast-food managers are nice, but also the taxi drivers. One taxi driver, with whom we agreed to pay the ride 200 roubles, gave us 50 roubles back at the end of the ride when it appeared that the destination was closer than expected!

Hi,it's nice to read your blog.
I intend to shoot my next film in Ulan-Ude, did you meet anyone from the film industry while you were there? Maybe you've got some tips?
Take Care and good luck to everyone!
