Watch Laughter and Grief by the White Sea (1987)
Several Russian Pomorsk men who live by the White Sea have brought in their boats for the evening and are relaxing inside a fisherman’s hut. One of them says “there has been so much untruth told about our region that it is time to set the record straight” and proceeds to tell a variety of outrageous tall tales (based on traditional folklore of the Russian north). As the evening gets later, the tales turn more serious.
