Michel Seydoux Features the tragic plight of Tibet where over 1 million Tibetans have died and nearly 120,000 Tibetans have escaped to live as exiles primarily in India since China's occupation of Tibet in 1949.

Gombo, a Mongolian shepard, and Sergei, a Russian road builder, strike up a friendship and go on the road together, headed for the city. Intending to buy a TV and condoms, Gombo is on his way to becoming a modern man. But present-day ways may not be so alluring after all.
