Bilike has never seen a ping-pong ball before. He and his family live without electricity and running water in a solitary tent home among the vast steppe grasslands. The magnificent landscape here has changed little since the days of Genghis Kahn. But life in the middle of nowhere can be exciting for a young boy. The smallest of details become big events for curious Bilike and his best friends Erguotou and Dawa. The mystery of the small white ball floating in the creek leads to questions about the world around them, as well as innocent mischief. Bilike's grandmother says the ball is a glowing pearl from heaven. But the boys are sceptical after waiting all night outdoors for the ball to light up. Since nobody has an idea about the odd white object, they trek to the faraway monastery to consult the wise lamas. But even the grasslands' most knowledgeable inhabitants are stumped.

I went to this movie with school today. But pff, what a piece of crap! I don't understand why this movie is rated a 6.5 !?! Way overrated!
No storyline, no action, no drama, no nothing. I think they don't even had a budget for this film.
The boy, finds a ball, floating down the river, but he never saw that before. After two hours the boy finds out that a ping-p0ng-ball isn't a holy egg. But before that; he licked the ball first and then he urinated on it. (?)
note: Strange thing is that the plot line says: the family has no electricity. But there is a part in the movie showing a TV. There is also a little boy on a scooter. (But how does he tank his gas?) The movie isn't correct.
Please don't waste your time!
