      Ugna: Dad, don't we want to buy a tv? it's wonderful.

      Amgaa: What do you want to do with this devil? You don't need that. You'd spend the whole day watching the glass images. That's no good.

    What a surprise!
    If anyone had ever told me that a movie about nomadic shepherds in Mongolia and a couple of camels could hold my interest and feelings the way this movie did I would have suggested they see a shrink.

    It can only be described as a wonderful story that makes the most complex of Hollywood screen-plays look silly.

    Great for all generations.
