IN THE GREEN LAND

Gulzhigit uulu Suiunbek | Kyrgyzstan 2018 | 13 Min. | OmeU

Gulzhigit uulu Suiunbek’s In the Green Land portrays a family in Kyrgyzstan, who, surrounded of rough mountains, live as shepards. Happiness and sadness seem to be closely related to nature, a ‘simple’ life. Through beautiful landscapes and personal insights into their everyday life, the film reveals a much more complex picture, which goes far beyond the term ‘simple’.
