This is a documentary film showing the life of herdsmen in the Hulun Buir grassland, and it is also a work that is inspired by the relationship between human beings and nature. With the background of Xibo Mountain in the Xini River Grassland of Hulun Buir, the film focuses on the real work and living conditions of the nomadic herdsmen, including their beliefs and reverence for nature, in an all-around, multi-angle documentary video work. The origin of this film is based on Mr Duane Tongke's nearly half-century old friend, Hadar, who gave up his work and life in the city to return to his hometown and live with the Hulun Buir Buryat community. Mr. Duane Tongke, the filmmaker, and Hadar, the main character of the film, are childhood partners who met by chance thirty years apart in the Sini River grasslands, so the film starts with Hadar's childhood memories, and records Hadar's real life in the Hulun buir grasslands from a natural, objective and calm perspective, reflecting every aspect of Hadar's life after he returned to his hometown to become a herdsman, and elaborating on the life of nomadic herdsmen, which is not very common in the present-day society. It also gives a multi-dimensional account of the life of nomadic herders, a rare phenomenon in today's society. Written by Sfilmmaker See less
