Taïga (2014)

Breathtaking cinematography provides an intimate glimpse into the life of Nomadic sheep herders on the Mongolian steppe. For Purevjav and his family, the predatory wolves who steal sheep at night are as troubling as the grazing land that is disappearing as with the mining boom. With quiet dignity, Purevjav speaks of the sacred relationship between human and wolf and how exploitation and misuse of the land has transgressed humanity's sacred connection to the landscape.
