Hirschfield International Film Series: Transition and Q&A with Director Sas Carey
27-year-old medical doctor Khongoroo grapples with what it means to remain in Mongolia’s capital Ulaanbaatar. She misses the beautiful but remote East Taiga, where two-dozen families and relatives live in a tight-knit Dukha reindeer herding community. Ulaanbaatar, a city of 1.5 million, offers her a job when the countryside does not. With work in the city, Khongoroo must decide whether to risk the health of her three-year old daughter in the polluted capital or leave her with her grandmother where the air is clean. Q&A with Director Sas Carey following each in-person screening. Free. A Hirschfield International Film Series event.
In-person screenings open only to students, faculty, and staff approved to be on campus. All are welcome to stream online.
