The Svans: A Georgian Community Living in Another Time

This documentary visits the Svans, an ancient community living in the remote Svaneti region high in the Georgian mountains. Nestled among peaks reaching five thousand meters, their forty villages preserve traditions that seem to belong to another time. The film captures the isolation, resilience and heritage of a people shaped by one of the Caucasus's most rugged landscapes. It is a fascinating watch for anyone drawn to remote cultures and mountain life. Free to watch in HD on Dr Documentary.
