      Hi Elina, I would be curious to know what is the meaning of that backstage painting of what seems to be a bull riding a fish 8:04 . I bet it stems from udmurt folklore, and even cosmogony. I have tried to browse the web for more infos, and didn't get anything in english. Do you have any interesting links to share on this topic?...

Most of the free world is sick to death of "Russian Culture" (this is an oxymoron if ever there was one) and sick of Russians ignoring the fact that they are killing Ukrainians on a daily basis. I sure as hell know I am sick of it. As Russians blindly go about their daily life and continue to ignore the reprehensible actions of their so-called elected leaders (actually, Russia is fully a dictatorship), people are dying at a rate of around 1,000 per day, half are Russian, half are Ukrainian. The rest of us outside of Russia just cannot understand the apathy of the Russian population despite the fact that we know that Russians are heavily propagandized by State-owned media and are fearful of their government. But the government cannot lock everyone up!! For example, the Udmurts working at the Votinsk factory could all just refuse to go to work. Or they could gather together and protest the factory. Or they could load up a truck with fertilizer and blow up the plant. JUST DO SOMETHING!! You know something is terribly wrong inside Russia.

    Eli, I sure hope that you attend the Red Head Festival in Izhevsk, Udmurtia!!! It is held annually in August. Since it is August and since you are already in Udmurtia, You probably already have it on your calendar. The sights & sounds will be fabulous. I am looking forward to your perspective on this amazing Festival!

    Hi Eli!
    On your travels in Russia, you cannot fail to show us ancient traditions and ancient religious rites in which you immerse us in this wonderful world that seems to be unknown to us, modern people.
    As far as I understand, these men performed a religious rite by sacrificing a lamb in honor of the gods so that they give men plenty of food by making it rain so that the earth gives excellent crops and grows abundant grass to fatten the cattle.
    Porridge made with grain and sacrificed lamb is very tempting. From these ritual ceremonies there is a certain sacredness that mixes the ancient with the present.
    I find it right that certain traditions are maintained precisely to remind the new generations where they come from and to teach them how they got to the present day.
    It is good that the people of Udmurtia keep this conservative spirit alive and organize festivals to let foreigners know their ancient traditions as well.
    In this video you make us another discovery and it would be the one that makes us aware of a great Russian composer like Tchaikovsky. I can't imagine if Giuseppe Verdi and Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky had met at the time and composed a piece together. 😌
    Other gastronomic discoveries of this ancient traditional festival that I have come to know about now is the Tabae the Perepechi.
    Too bad these specialties are only made during the holidays, they look so good and should be made known everywhere. Another reason to go to Russia and see this holiday. 🤤😋😏
    Even the people are very simple and sincere who deserve respect and recognition.
    Thank you for this little interactive trip to Udmurtia where I got to discover many things about this Russian region.
    A greeting and a hug.
