Plot Summary
As comic as it is awe-inspiring, Tulpan is set in the vast emptiness of southern Kazakhstan's Hunger Steppe. Having completed his miltary service, a young nomad named Asa returns home to his brother-in-law's yurt with hopes of becoming a shepherd. But is such a life any longer possible in the modern world? First, Asa must win the affections of his beautiful neighbor, Tulpan. Dvortsevoy gives us the bleak beauty of the steppe's windswept landscape: the endless sky, the camel stampedes, the raucous behavior of a reggae-loving teamster, and one of the most remarkable animal birth scenes ever captured on film.

Cool film
The important thing is that the movie tells the truth about some pure Kazakh people...
