Immerse yourself in the breathtaking atmosphere of the rugged and majestic Tian Shan mountains! In this film, we travel to one of Kyrgyzstan’s most picturesque regions to reveal the authentic lifestyle of a modern nomadic family.

Here, at an altitude of several thousand meters above sea level, life follows the ways of the ancestors. The family upholds ancient traditions: living in a traditional Kyrgyz yurt, raising horses and cattle, managing daily life without modern urban conveniences, and existing in perfect harmony with the wild landscape.
