A nomadic family helps their flock of camels to give birth during summer. But one of them is struggling. As soon as the calf is born, the mother loses interest in her young one. To prevent the young camel from dying, the breeders resort to the old practice of bringing a violinist over to stir the mother into reconciling with her baby. A story nominated for the Best Documentary Oscar in 2005.
