At the summit of the Pamirs, playing soccer to the traces of the sky

Crossing the desolate land of the Pamir Plateau, unexpectedly encountering a cloud soccer match under Muztagh Ata! Kyrgyz boys run on the 4000-meter-high meadow, with a herd of yaks calmly acting as the most composed spectators 🐂. As the boys dribble forward, the snow-covered ridges become a natural backdrop 🏔️. The silhouettes of the boys competing for the ball overlap with the distant mountains, and every shot seems to kick the ball into the clouds 🌤️.
