I'm sitting here, watching a documentary about trappers in the Russian Taiga forests, making a living off the land.
...And all that is going through my mind is, "Why is this isolated Russian carrying around a Japanese Type 38 carbine?"
It makes no sense.
Isolated.
Complaining about the incredible expense of necessities like gasoline (for his 30 year-old snowmobile), let alone the cost of what should surely be obscure ammunition.
The rifle is out of place.
And, yet, it's the only firearm that he owns.
I'm not likely to ever get an answer as to why, and how this came to be. But, I'm curious...
What have you seen that just strikes you as incredibly out of place and incongruent with the 'story' or circumstances in a 'true' film or documentary?
Edited to make the primary question more obvious.
