5000 years of nomadic herding communities are under great threat in Mongolia. A lifestyle where humans coexisted with nature is rapidly disappearing. In the past two decades the numbers of herders have decreased dramatically. This is a project about Kazakh people, a minority in Mongolia who still live an agricultural way of life.
