Product Information
A family of herders living in the remote, eerily beautiful Gobi desert in Mongolia face a crisis when their camel gives birth. She rejects her calf, and their attempts to reconcile the two fail. So their two young sons must make the long journey to the city to fetch help from a violinist who can perform an ancient ritual. Byambasuren Davaa and Luigi Falorni's poignant, fascinating tale opens a window on a traditional way of life under threat from creeping modernity. In Mongolian with English subtitles.Product Identifiers
