The music video also features some locations in North Ossetia, such as the statue of the Saint of Men by the Ossetian Military Road near Alagir.

The Ksani Ravine / Čysangom is one of the southernmost parts of South Ossetia and apparently home to one of only two border crossings between South Ossetia and Georgia. Given that Georgia sees South Ossetia as its own territory under occupation, rather than as a sovereign state… Well, you can imagine that crossing the border can be pretty intense.

Interestingly, the top comment under this video says "Greetings from Georgia, my Ossetian brothers!" — so evidently there's at least one Georgian who recognizes South Ossetia. What, people in a country having personal views that contradict government policy?! Wild! Imagine that!
