Azerbaijan is doing very well, and that has everything to do with the the fact that the country is rich with large amounts of oil and gas. It was one of the first centers of the oil industry in the world at the end of the 19th century, and now the country is going through a new oil boom. Jelle goes out with an eccentric billionaire, takes a bath in crude oil, and dives into the rich past of the capital Baku.
Original title: Achter de bergen van Sotsji
Jelle Brandt Corstius goes looking for answers in The Mountains Behind Sochi. In this six-episode series he travels from Sochi in Russia through the Caucasus. Far from political power games and war intrigues, he visits remote mountain villages and meets proud peoples with a strong desire to be independent.
Directed by: Hans Pool
Presented by: Jelle Brandt Corstius

Looks like all the money in a few pockets while the rest of the population is poor. Look at all those old cars

Hi drzeworyj, As far as we know we are publishing the last one available! Jelle recently made a series about Robots, but we do not know when or if it will come to our channel.

I noticed the same (the delay) in about every episode of this series. Nevertheless, a great series.
