Oh, apologies.
Here's a footage I like a lot. It's about an ordinary working day of the Ural truck drivers. They're basically picking up a load of timber. Well, a lot of things may happen on the road. Very realistic. I don't know the people who made this video, nor the exact location. That's what the things look like in nowadays Russia outside the cities. Roads, trucks on their sides, grocery, landing, everything. And that's exactly the way the things go out there. Not extremely efficient, yet somehow things are always working out.

Or: "We're just like Ice Road Truckers. Except we don't have the roads!"
That's an idea!
I haven't engaged myself with logging in Russia for the last 3 years, due to the protective customs duty, which pretty much ended exporting round wood out of the country. According to my experience before that the plot might be something like this:
Synopsis:
A logging contractor Vladimir Vladimirovich is facing a challenge: The rival businessman Ivan Ivanovich has paid out the judge in order to cancel the cutting lease contract, which allows Vladimir Vladimirovich to harvest on the federal land. The torpedos of Ivan Ivanovich are out to torch the logging equipment and shoot workers. A local mobster Nikolay Nikolayevich collects from Vladimir Vladimirovich, and he's supposed to cover. Now Ivan Ivanovich is willing to pay Nikolay Nikolayevich to look the other way, so Vladimir Vladimirovich is forced to raise some funds to keep the mobster happy. In order to do that, he should get more timber moving. The problem is, his head mechanic Igor Igorevich has downed all the brake fluid...
