Film: The Story of the Weeping Camel

This is the fifth film of the UWL Ethnographic Film Series of 2017-2018, organized by the Department of Archaeology & Anthropology. Dr. Katherine Grillo will facilitate the film and a post-film discussion. Free and open to the public. Free popcorn will be provided! Other concessions will be available for purchase, with proceeds going to the UWL Archaeology & Anthropology Club.

“On the edges of the Gobi Desert live to this day nomadic herders who travel with their animals and exist within an ancient economy that requires no money. "The Story of the Weeping Camel," which despite its title, is a joyous movie, tells the story of one of those families, and of their camel, which gives birth to a rare white calf and refuses to nurse it. It is a terrible thing to hear the cry of a baby camel rejected by its mother."
