The Weeping Camel

The Weeping Camel won an award for best documentary. A family helps their camel herd give birth, the mother soon rejects the baby. In which causes the family to call upon an lamas who perform a ritual with bread or dough.
      The family sends their two youngest boy on a journey through the desert to the community marketplace. Which they had to locate a musician for an Mongolian ritual. The ritual happens to bind the mother and her calf back together, in which she begins to weep. I think the camel began to weep because she distanced herself from her child, she just didnt feel a connection to the baby. Plus it was her first calf, so she didnt know how to feel.
   

I think the movie The Weeping Camel is about family. The Family in the movie is main characters, they are all about togetherness. They attempted plenty of times to get the camel to have a connection with its baby, but he just was not connected. The mother sends her two sons out to town to get someone to do a ritual, because without one the camels baby will not be able to make it. With the ritual they hope the camel will come to her senses and accept that she finally has a child that needs to be looked after.
     Throughout the movie they do thins as a family, they sit together and eat. Their clothing are nice and fully designed in details.  There is two huts one where the family lives and one where the grandparents live.  Their homes are generally small but nicely decorated with art. The family and near by families experience a sand storm, they close their huts up very good to prevent the sand from entering their home. After he storm they call on to nature to stop the storm from coming again, and to prevent it from hurting the animals.
   As the movie comes to an end, the ritual happens and the camel finally decides to become a mother to her calf. It made the family happy because the mother the only one that could help that calf. The family couldn't keep feeding it through a bottle. The movie ended on a good ending, the mother finally realizes she does have some one who is counting on her and need her. For them to come together as one was something the family hoped for.
