Bum-Erdene, the narrative tells of the encounter between a man, who unexpectedly returns from the big city to the countryside and then stays on to take up an agricultural role, and boy being brought up by his grandparents. Both are forced to re-evaluate what they had taken for granted.

Additionally, Tenuum-Erdene Garamkhand who played the role of the young boy collected the best actor award at the Fribourg Iff.
