Set in the frozen Mongolian steppes, this is the stunning epic about Bagi, a young nomad who is told his destiny is to become a shaman. When he ignores his calling, his grandfather warns that disaster will strike, and strike it does – a plague befalls the animals and the nomads are forced to relocate to bleak mining towns. Bagi rescues a beautiful coal thief, Zolzaya, and together they discover that the 'plague' was a plot to eradicate nomadism, leading to a breathtaking revolution.
