Awards

edit

The film was presented in many festivals. A section "Awards and nominations", or equivalent, would make it class start. Hoverfish Talk 23:03, 2 March 2007 (UTC)Reply

nature of love

edit

The last line in the article: "The film attempts to speak to the nature of love--the baby camel cannot survive without his mother, just as no person can." What the heck does does this sentence mean? People can survive w/o the love of the camel mother, and even their own mother.

The Television

edit

When the children are first watching the small television, Nu, pogodi! Episode 10 is shown. Should this be considered a reference to popular culture, or at least explained on the Nu, pogodi page itself? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.234.74.23 (talk) 00:27, 3 October 2009 (UTC)Reply

Is there any indication that this was an intentional choice? Or did it just happen to be on by random chance at the time of filming? Given the method of filming, I suspect the latter, which would turn it into meaningless trivia not worth mentioning. --Latebird (talk) 13:00, 3 October 2009 (UTC)Reply

shot on location in a month

edit

"The filmmakers are Byambasuren Davaa and Luigi Falorni. She directed, he photographed, they co-wrote. They met at the Munich Film School, where she told him that her grandparents had been herders. Their film was shot on location in about a month, and has an authenticity in its very bones."
