In the organizer's words:
TUYA'S WEDDING
The film is not about the Chinese boom towns, where capitalism is virtually exploding, but about the outward-looking side of the country. In Inner Mongolia, a family struggles to survive. Here, too, the rapid changes in this huge country are making themselves felt.
Nomad Tuya has been on her own since her husband Bater had a serious accident. She has to look after him, the children and the grazing cattle, which pushes her to her limits. The amicable divorce is intended to pave the way for a new husband to take care of the family and Bater. Many suitors from near and far introduce themselves and even though the city is nowhere in sight, it comes threateningly close to the nomadic life.
Director Wang Quan'an depicts the erosion of the rural way of life in haunting and grotesque images - a quiet drama in a remote and breathtakingly beautiful part of the world.
