A gorgeous little story and beautiful people but I'd only recommend it for documentary buffs. Anyone else might find it unbearingly boring mainly because there is not much dialogue (everything said wasn't translated) and that it is pretty much a documentary. It's possible that arthouse buffs would appreciate it also.
Description:
Springtime in the Gobi Desert, South Mongolia. A family of nomadic shepherds assists with the births of their camel herd. One of the camels has an excruciatingly difficult delivery, but out comes a rare white calf.
Despite the efforts of the shepherds, the mother rejects the newborn, coldy refusing it her milk and her motherly love.
When any hope for the little one seems to have vanished, the nomads send their two young boys on a journey through the desert, in search of a musician. Finally a traditional violinist is summoned to the camp and a breathtaking ritual is performed.
