Mongolia, in the international cinematic imagination, tends to be largely defined by the rugged lyricism of its rural landscapes, peopled by grizzled nomads and eagle hunters, and of course, celebrated as the birthplace of conquering warlord Genghis Khan.

However Ze, who is sincere in his belief in the shamanic abilities that he exhibited first as a young boy, seems to have reconciled the two halves of his life, even if the strangeness of the family business sets him somewhat apart from his peers. His parents are proud of their son’s gifts, and he has a flinty but affectionate sibling relationship with Oyu , who perhaps does not want to admit how much the solitary twanging of his jaw harp in their shared bedroom at night soothes her.

He visits her in hospital while she is recuperating, and there discovers that she is a loner too, living with her mother, and missing her father who lives in Korea. A tentative, sweet relationship springs up between them. Under its influence, Ze dyes his hair, starts slacking on his schoolwork and getting into trouble in class.
