Galsan Tschinag takes us into the innermost circle of his life in the Mongolian steppe. A century-old idea has taken hold of him: he wants to green the steppe with a million trees. The first step: the desolate, crumbling cemetery of his ancestors needs to be restored. However, numerous obstacles arise. The tribespeople fear the spirits of the dead, and there is a lack of money, materials, and perseverance. Then, a mysterious, blonde, stunningly beautiful Kazakh woman appears in the yurt of the tribal leader. Her intelligence and passion make him forget that she has her own, threatening agenda.
