Director: Byambasuren Davaa
Cast: Batchuluun Urjindorj
Cert: U
A film from Mongolia, and a quite charming one at that.
The story revolves around a real nomadic family whose children find a small dog in a cave; dad wants it sent back to the wild but the little mutt grows on everybody, specially the audience.
The Mongolian landscape is wonderful, the sheer humanity of the film grips and the characters - none of them actors by trade - steal your heart.
Star Rating: 4/5
