Sven Zellner

A young woman is searching for her roots and discovers an idiosyncratic, radical sensuality that not only transgresses Mongolian conventions but also those of the supposedly more liberal West.

Mongolia is known for its original Nomad culture as well as the spectacular natural landscape. Since gold deposits have been discovered however, both are threatened. Mongolians are breaking with their traditions and have started to plunder their land digging for gold. They are using mercury in their extraction of gold and thereby poisoning their environment. Gold rush rules Mongolia. The film tells the story of a couple of men who set forth on the search for the precious metal.

A documentary about bare facts. It shows how two girls get to know one another – naked in an apartment. It is a story of the beginning of a beautiful friendship, of daydreams and deep secrets.
