It's quite a decent documentary about Uzbekhistan (in English),- i think it's beautifully filmed. I really like Uzhbekhs and everything Uzbekh. We have plenty of Uzbekhs living in my hometown and in the city. They are nice people (at least, the vast majority). (Btw, my granny Nadya went to Samarkand once,- i wouldn't refuse to see Samarkand and other sites with my own eyes too).
Somedays, i was telling you (on VV) that i had met an Uzbekh guy in Kazan' (Tatarstan republic). He was my cab driver, and we had to overpass 11kms. I was going to one of the symbols of Tatarstan ("Bakhetle" supemarket, which means "Happiness"). My goal was to get a lot of groceries and souvenirs in a very limited time, lol,- that's why this time in Kazan' i never used the subway, not a single time (i'm a swine, i know, but talking to ALL local drivers was like a "cultural burst" in my mind,- very, very interesting, so why not...). So we (that Uzbekh and i) could have a small conversation. His Russian wasn't great, but i could understand him. I enjoyed this talk a lot! He was telling me about some interesting locations in the city. Besides the other things, he told me that Tatarian and Uzbekh languages are of the same group (basically), and that his ex-wife was Tatarian, but at home, they both never bothered to speak each other's languages (or study them): he was speaking Uzbekh, and she could understand, and she was speaking Tatarian, and his comprehension wasn't bad either!

"How the Uzbekh female image has been changed over the last 100+ yrs". (It demands to push "Watch on Youtube" button, but it works).

Blin, when Bush Jr. started the war in Iraq, everyone over here decided that he was the worst president on Earth. Perhaps Trump would have started some war either, but he's already taught by other's mistakes what he should do and what he shouldn't. It seems incredible that there are still so many supporters who believe him and trust him. It's beyond my comprehension.:???:
