From travels in March 2014, living with neutrino physicists on the frozen surface of the world’s oldest, deepest lake (located in Siberia), who risk their lives daily to hunt for an obscure particle that will allow them to peer into the subatomic fabric of space-time. Followed by journeys to interview Tuvan throat singers, shamans, and hunters in remote villages near the borders of Kazakhstan, Mongolia, and China.
