Im going to have to say this is my favorite out of the two Mongolian movies we watched. Im not totally sure why i liked it more. Probably because there was more stuff going on, and people talked instead of just camel noises. But really this movie was good, a little confusing to me because its about these people who dont know what a ping pong ball is. And to me that silly, but i only think that because ive known what it is for a long time and its not a weird or strang unknown item to me. So you have to take into consideration about where people live and how advanced they are.
Another difference i found was how they got around, transportaion wise. One of Bilike's friends had a motor scooter, Bilike rode a horse, and the traveling sales man and police man both had cars/trucks. And i was pretty surprised that the scooter could drive on that terrain. It was pretty impresive. Because those vehicals have to be able to go on just about anything because there are no real roads or anything.
And it was pretty cool that this probably 8 or so year old kid had his own scooter. Most kids in America dont even have that. So as you can see these kids have a lot of freedom. They also stole a beer and basically ran away and played in these hills over night and its like their parents didnt even care, until they found out that the kids had gotten drunk from the beer.
