    • Ulzii, a teenager from a poor neighborhood in Ulaanbaatar, is determined to win a science-physics competition in order to get a scholarship. His illiterate mother finds a job in the countryside, leaving him and his younger siblings by themselves, in the middle of winter. Torn between handling his household and studying for the national competition, Ulzii will have no choice but to take a risky job in order to feed his family and keep his home heated.
