A Mongolian nomad family find themselves in disagreement
when the oldest
daughter, Nansal, finds a small dog and brings it home. Believing
that it is
responsible for attacking his sheep, her father refuses to allow
her to keep
it. When the family moves on, Nansal is left with the dilemma of
whether
to defy her father and smuggle Zochor (or 'Spot' in English) with
them.
Oscar- nominated director Byambasuren's follow up to the hugely
successful
The Story of the Weeping Camel is a thought provoking mix of documentary
and drama. Featuring a real life family and following much of their
daily
existence, this is combined with a narrative structure that acts
as a framework
for the film. The naturalistic pace reflects the quiet, often uneventful
world
that the family inhabit but this underlines a still beauty that
is
realised throughout.
