BAURYNA SALU
directed by Askhat Kuchinchirekov
Following an old nomadic tradition 'Bauryna Salu', a boy Yersultan, was given after his birth to be raised by his grandmother. He grew up with resentment and disconnection from his parents. When he turns twelve, his grandmother dies and he has to move back with his family which he barely knows. Yersultan's coming of age process coincides with an unbearable transformation and an attempt to restore the relationship between him and his parents, especially his father.
