Nevertheless, by force of livelihood, he had to steal horses again. Unfortunately, he was hit to death when he stole horses for the last time. The film shows the unique culture of Tibet and the influence that religion has on its people as well as the society through the rich filmic language and the expressive force of the film image.

Truth is, this film is actually about a horse thief, but above all it is an incredible example of what life can also look like somewhere we may not even be able to imagine. There are scenes here that are not easy to watch, but they are scenes that belong to the life that is presented to us here. In this is the incredible strength of the film, which shows the power of human beings and their weaknesses, in harmony with nature.
