This is a magical blend of drama and documentary set in the Gobi Desert of Southern Mongolia. A family of nomadic camel herders are faced with a dilemma when a mother rejects a newborn white camel, refusing it both milk and motherly love. Two boys are sent off through the desert to find a musician who is the only hope for the young calf.
