The Bulgarian feature 'Ága' has a far North frame of mind and plays like the classic ethnographic documentary suggested by the lead character's name, Nanook.
Like that film, Lazarov follows his fur-clad Nanook through the tasks of daily life, watching as he sets and checks traps, breaks through the ice to fish, and, unlike radio hero Sgt. Preston of the Yukon, gets from place to place on a sled pulled by but a single hard-working dog.
The only visitor these two get is Chena , presumably a neighbor of some sort but one distant enough to have to arrive via snowmobile. The visitor also brings news of Ága, Nanook and Sedna’s estranged daughter, who left the family under circumstances that are never revealed and now lives and works in one of Sakha’s cities.
