Tuya, hardworking and hardheaded, is a Mongolian desert herder who refuses to be settled in a town in accordance with the new industrialization policy. She is kept busy with two kids, a disabled husband and 100 sheep to care for, but one day she hurts her back. The only way for the family to survive is for her to divorce her husband on paper and look for a new spouse who can take care of the whole family. A series of suitors lines up, but it's not easy to find a man who fits the bill. This warm, endearing tale, featuring stunning cinematography, won the top prize at the 2007 Berlin International Film Festival. * 2007 Berlin International Film Festival - Golden Bear * Chicago International Film Festival - Best Actress (YU Nan)

I'm from Mongolia and i kinda feel bad for these people who just separated from their own country and treated like shit. I won't surprised that Inner Mongolia will soon be wiped and it'll be officially chinese

A very good film which won the Golden Bear at the Berlin Film Festival in 2007.

All actors are (local) non-professional Mongolians with the exception of Nan Yu who is Chinese and plays Tuya and also does a terrific job.

@reggaemn I am from Inner Mongolia, I can not agree even one word you said here.

[Tsus2007]

it is true,and many of them must try 2 learn chinese as well as they can,if not they can not have any job for sure

[Tsus2007]

I think u may find it in mainland china,but U may check out a film called Gangan har,i liked it,name is about a black horse but can see the real life in the country.

i've been to Inner Mongolia, most of Mongolians are afraid to admit that they speak fluent Mongolian.. especially in presence of a han Chinese from center. it seems it is some sort of fear accumulated for years

[reggaemn]

do you know how to get this film? looks like it is a terrific drama.. Tsus, thanks for reminding about this item. is the DVD available in mainland China?

[Tsus2007]

it is just a chinese film made by chinese,plz respect the mgls under occupations,even there r some of them changed,but still many of them r just nomads in the countryside,they did nothing but just nobody could help

if u can not help,at least should not kick them from back
