The Russian rockstar saving a dying Siberian language

In south-central Siberia, along the shore of Lake Baikal, lies a population of fewer than one million people. The Buryats are the largest indigenous group in the region and most can be found in the Republic of Buryatia, a federal subject of Russia. Their rich Mongolian heritage is evident in their culture and their language. But it is a language that many fear is dying. Filmmaker: Jassim Matar Kunji
