Against the Wind Против ветра

The once green Nogai steppe in the south of Dagestan is turning into a vast desert. A simple countrywoman Gulfira is trying to save her home land from this ecological disaster. Every autumn the brigade she heads goes to the heart of the newly-formed desert for several months. They walking a dozen kilometers each day and stick thin seedling-twigs into the dry sand hoping that the shrubbery will take root and stop the sand. Will Gulfira win this battle with the forces of nature?
