The Cave of the Yellow Dog

The Cave of the Yellow Dog
Byambasuren Davaa (Director)
CULTURAL PORTRAIT •  2007 •  DVD

A nomadic Mongolian family find themselves in disagreement when the oldest daughter, Nansa, 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, Nansa must decide whether or not to defy her father and take her new friend with them. Oscar-nominated director Byambasuren Davaa's follow up to the hugely successful The Story of the Weeping Camel is a thought-provoking mix of documentary and drama that tells the story of the age-old bond between man and dog, a bond which experiences a new twist through the eternal cycle of reincarnation in Mongolia.  (MGL59, $19.95)
