The video takes viewers through Vorkuta, a coal‑mining town north of the Arctic Circle in European Russia, and its surrounding satellite towns that once formed the Vorkuta Ring. It shows the abandoned mines, ghost towns, and infrastructure such as the Rudnik district, Komsomolsky town, the Ayach‑Yaga mine, a junkyard, an abandoned ventilation shaft, the Vorkuta train station, and a former mining school. The footage, shot with a GoPro 10 and a Panasonic G7, highlights the desolate landscape and the remnants of the Soviet industrial era.
