Gobi Women's Song, a film on the lives of Mongolian women, will be shown in Woodstock, New York, USA on August 31. 

Sas Carey, Director of Nomadicare for Mongolia, will present the movie about the present and future of Mongolian women and culture. 

Gobi Women's Song, has been screened in seven states in the U.S. for 26 audiences. The movie, a documentary, is described as a forum for “twenty-first century Mongolian nomadic women to share the song of their soul. In a transitional moment which decides the future lives, environment, and lifestyle of its people, Gobi Women's Song is about connection—with the land, community, family, and ultimately, with us.” 

As Ya. Batsuuri, Mongolian Ambassador to Thailand says of the film, “This is the real life of the people living in the Gobi Desert of Mongolia. I am from this place. I was born and grew up there. You show that Gobi life is a hard life and it is, but I always miss it because it is my home.”
