    Latin America. Non-Touristy Mexico. Cuba. Episode 1

    45 min

    World Inside Out begins a new grand journey. The sixth season of the television program awaits us - in a new format and on a new continent! Over the five previous seasons we have covered hundreds of thousands of kilometers, showing the inside of Cambodia, India, Kenya, Tanzania, Ethiopia, Vietnam, Indonesia and Papua. It is time to fly to the other side of the world to see the real Latin America without embellishment. In the first episode of the sixth season we begin exploring non-touristy Mexico. First of all, we are in for a unique acquaintance with a wolf man: an exclusive report from a small Mexican town where a wolf family lives - people with a very rare and incurable disease. The next stop is Cuba. We will overturn your ideas about the Island of Freedom by showing it from a completely different side. We will tell why filming in this country turned out to be the most difficult of all seasons of the program World Inside Out, and we ourselves almost ended up behind bars. Despite the fact that we were under surveillance by the special services the whole time, we still managed to film the inside of the Island of Freedom. But we will certainly also tell about the best sides of this amazing country, and, of course, relax and dance. After all, Cuba is the birthplace of the sexiest dances on the planet, and we will learn what makes each of them unique. And also, of course, we will reveal secrets and show the brightest moments of our great Latin American expedition.

    In episode 3 of season 6, "The World Inside Out" will meet the modern descendants of the Maya – the Tzotzil Indians. They live in Mexico, completely ignoring its laws and order. And those who try to reason with the tribe and teach them to live in step with the times are dealt with by force. The Tzotzil are a harsh people; they hate people with cameras, sincerely believing that every photograph steals a piece of their soul. They believe that alcohol is a sacred drink and that the more of it you drink, the closer to God you can become. That is why you can see simply shocking scenes here: small children are given wine to drink. And here sorcerers and shamans are also held in high esteem. We will witness a terrifying witchcraft ritual – how the Tzotzil cure diseases with the help of sacrifices. In the city of San Cristóbal, the most romantic story of the season awaits us. A New Year's fairy tale, or a station for two: how a chance meeting at a bus station with a beautiful Mexican woman named Fabiola completely changed the fate of Ukrainian Oleksandr and made Mexico his second home. And then the town of Tequila awaits us – the birthplace of the legendary Mexican drink, one of the country's calling cards and the favorite alcohol of Latin American machos and mariachis. Only in our program will you see all the secrets of tequila production using great-grandfathers' technologies: rolling up our sleeves, we will get to work – we will cut blue agave, show how to make the main Mexican drink from its juice, and, of course, teach you how to drink it.

    Latin America. Getting to Know Mexico. Episode 5

    45 min

    In the city of Guadalajara, we will get to know the favorite sport of gambling Mexicans – "lucha libre," which translated from Spanish means "free fighting." Every lucha libre match is dozens of very spectacular jumps, holds, lifts, throws, and even elements of aerial acrobatics. Absolutely everything is allowed here – hitting people who are down, hitting with feet, head, torso, and even pelvis. After the sporting extreme, a culinary one awaits us. Ukrainian Anna will teach us to eat ants, spiders, and even scorpions! And then our compatriot will take us for a ride on a VIP plane, a ride on which only the richest and most famous can afford. We will show you a truly shocking Mexico, where ancient rituals are practiced not only by savages from the jungle but also by civilized people. For example, in the town of Pomuch it is an absolutely normal phenomenon to come to the cemetery and take a relative's bones out of the grave. Every year the residents of Pomuch remember their deceased relatives this way, washing their bones!

    Latin America. Getting to Know Mexico. Episode 6

    45 min

    In episode 6 of season 6, "The World Inside Out" will continue getting to know Mexico. Mexicans are unlike us in many ways – they eat cacti and adore spicy food, they are always calm and never in a hurry, and also only in Mexico once a year the whole country rejoices in death, dedicating its main holiday to it – the Day of the Dead. We will go to Oaxaca to become, together with the Mexicans, full participants in this nationwide madness – when the whole country turns into a terrifying carnival with the main attributes of the gloomy holiday – skulls and skeletons. We will show you the ancient city where the great Maya once lived, and we will climb the pyramid of Toniná, where a thousand years ago cruel priests performed bloody sacrifices. We made it out of what we had. For dessert, an experimental dish of Ukrainian-Mexican cuisine awaits you – dumplings with grasshoppers. You have never seen anything like this!

    Latin America. Special Operation "Cuba". Episode 7

    45 min

    In episode 7 of season 6, "The World Inside Out" goes to Cuba. We are beginning an expedition that can boldly be called special operation "Cuba": Dmitry Komarov and Oleksandr Dmytriiev were followed all the time, and evidence was collected against them. They had a real chance of going to prison for illegal filming, espionage, or, worst of all, activity against the revolution. "The World Inside Out" will tell the truth about Cuba and show two sides of one "Island of Freedom." The first is Cuba libre, free Cuba, a paradise for tourists. And the second is a country of absurd bans and restrictions, with salaries of 20 dollars and poverty, which the authorities desperately hide from foreign journalists. We will show you the luxury with which tourists relax at the world-famous cabaret "Tropicana." Here wealthy tourists are always welcome, but you will never meet ordinary Cubans here – such entertainment is simply beyond their means – they barely survive, and to be convinced of this it is enough to go into any store. We will secretly film how Cubans receive their monthly ration by cards – it is simply impossible to survive on such a set of products. In the city of Santiago de Cuba we will become poachers and catch lobsters, a magnificent seafood delicacy. Cubans are not only forbidden to catch lobsters, they do not even have the right to eat them! For violating this absurd ban, Cubans are put in prison! A very unusual tour of an abandoned sanatorium in Havana awaits us, one that looks more like an exclusion zone, where Ukrainian children affected by the Chernobyl accident once vacationed. And finally – the Cuban story most anticipated by men. We will teach you how to properly meet Cuban beauties and tell you what actually awaits men who have come to the island of freedom in search of love and passion.

We will show how Cubans solve the water problem. We will also show how people manage not to live on 20 dollars a month: we will visit a private home restaurant where the biggest hamburgers in the country are made. And a Cuban woman, Jergi, will tell us how she earns a living by renting out her home to wealthy foreigners. We will ride in Fidel Castro's personal "Chaika", which Leonid Brezhnev gave him.
