In a barren wasteland of a village, somewhere in the middle of Kazakhstan comes Asa, the film's protagonist. A recently discharged sailor for the Russian Navy, Asa comes to the Hunger Steppe where his sister Samal lives, along with her older husband, Ondas, and their three children, Beke, Maha, and little Nuka, who seems to be everywhere and nowhere all at once. Asa daydreams of becoming a herdsman with his own ranch. A boss who owns the land on the village decides that only established herdsman, with wives and grounded dreams may be given land to herd on. To do this Asa needs to marry his enigmatic "neighbor": Tulpan, the only woman eligible for marriage perhaps within a hundred miles. The plot of the story basically follows the trials of how Asa, his surrogate family, and his western culture-loving friend Boni help and mold the realization, disenchantment, and rebirth of Asa's dreams.
