 THE CAVE OF THE YELLOW DOG, a charming Mongolian Film from the Director of The Story of Weeping Camel opens in Nov/Dec 2006 in selected USA cities.
Official film site: www.caveoftheyellowdog.com/. Screening details.
In The Cave of the Yallow Dog, a Mongolian nomad family find themselves in disagreement when the oldest daughter, Nansal, finds a dog and brings it home. Believing that it is responsible for attacking his sheep, her father refuses to allow her to keep it. When it's time for the family to move on, Nansal must decide whether to defy her father and take her new friend with them. Oscar-nominated director Byambasuren Davaa's follow up to the hugely successful The Story of the Weeping Camel is a thought-provoking mix of documentary and drama that tells the story of the age-old bond between man and dog, a bond which experiences a new twist through the eternal cycle of reincarnation in Mongolia. (In Mongolian; fully subtitled in English.)

 Gobi Women's Song, a new film by Sas Carey will be premiered Saturday 4th Nov at the theatre of the Rubin Museum of Art (RMA), New York City at 4:00 pm (cost: $15). Set against the background of barren expanses, Gobi Women's Song immerses the viewer in a different world. It is a world in a transitional moment, one that has occurred in all cultures, which decides the future lives, environment, and lifestyle of its people. Five 21st century nomadic women share their lives in Mongolia's Gobi Desert. These are women who live the same life their ancestors did 3000 years ago, women who still hum with the song of the soul passed down from their grandmothers. Visit www.rmanyc.org/calendar/calendar.cfm. Contact: Rubin Museum of Art, 150 West 17th Street, New York, NY 10011, 212-620-5000,
