I have to admit that I don't know much about Mongolia, even though I've known about it for most of my life (when I was young, I had a puzzle that was a map of the world, so I learned Mongolia). So "The Story of the Weeping Camel" is an interesting little look at this culture. The movie focuses on a group of nomads whose camel ignores her calf, and they have to hire a musician to get the camel to change her mind.
It was especially eye-opening that this was a German-Mongolian co-production. I wouldn't expect Germany to make a movie about the relationship between a camel and her calf. But what do I know? It's a really interesting movie.
