"It's much more than a frustration, it's a very strong feeling,"
says community leader Oie Sarv, who spent much of her childhood
in Russia. "It's like your roots have been cut through."
Setos have a unique culture with their own language and traditions.
Seto Leelo, a type of polyphonic singing specific to the region,
is listed as a form of Intangible Cultural Heritage by Unesco.
Setos also have their own king, Perkūnas Peko - a god of crops and fertility.
Peko is said to sleep beneath the monastery, over the border in Petseri.
