THE STORY OF THE WEEPING CAMEL
(U) 2004 Germany/Mongolia 87 mins Subtitled
Effortlessly blending drama, nature documentary, and ethnographic film, The Story of the Weeping Camel weaves a magical tale about a nomadic Mongolian family who reunite a rejected baby camel with its mother. Nominated for an Oscar for Best Documentary Feature - a quietly wonderful film. "A cinematic oasis, both refreshing and thoroughly life-affirming” BBC
“Weeping Camel carves out its own genre: magic-realist docu-soap. The Gobi is magnificent, the family look like an animated Benetton billboard and the camels' soulful eyes bore straight to your heart.” Total Film
