Emergency in the Kaukasus: A shepherd is ill. Dr. Irakli (81) packs his saddle, looks for his horse and rides. His Wallach Bitschola (31) and him are the rescue unit in the Georgian Kaukasus going up to 3.500 meters height where there are no roads – the doc has to ride.
Until he got pension he worked as a neurologist in a hospital in the valley. Then he returned into the mountains ot Tushetia and became mountain doctor. He has rescued 51+ lives since. He believes that god called him to do so. During the village festivities in summer he brews the beer for the folks.
