The cultural background of humanity still lives silently in steppes of Central Asia .
While the world as we know it, drifts into war from war, into poverty from wealthiness upon the flow of globalization; another world, that carries the traces of thousands of years within the lives of the natives, evolves with the ancient struggle of humanity in the middle of nowhere.
The Tsengel Tuvans that are one of the rare communities still believing in Shamanism live by shepherding and engage in nomadic and migratory life. They manage to pass their cultural heritage on to the new generations. But, with the globalizing world they are on the edge of social alteration.
This documentary film is about the life, rituals and religion of Tuvans who are living as minority in Mongolia-Olgiy region.
