Zakhar lives with his family among the vast Arctic spaces of Siberia, 100 miles away from any other human dwellings. Zakhar is only 7, but has his own reindeer and tundra for pasture. One day, his nomad family is joined by a teacher sent by the authorities to explain why the kids need math and Putin. The teacher is meant to provide them with a specific set of facts and understandings, but Zakhar craves answers to millions of questions about the world. Small but exciting things happen to the children every day, and each errand turns into a thrilling adventure.
