Kasnan is in charge of detecting rabies cases in the region. The disease is spreading fast, thanks to three animals: dogs, marmots and... Eagles. Incredibly, Kasnan is a passionate eagle hunter! He has already trained five eagles and is finishing training a two-year-old female. We accompany them. The eastern part of Mongolia is predominantly Muslim: mosques and Koranic schools abound. Traditional weddings too... The Kazakhs of Mongolia never forget that they live just a few kilometers from the country of their ancestors: Kazakhstan. A very different country: over there, there's hope of work... But Kazakhstan is a "turbulent" country compared to peaceful Mongolia. So what to do? Stay here and live as a minority, or take the plunge? Kasnan has a lot on his mind: his brother is a widower and has decided to remarry in accordance with the tradition of kidnapping his bride! But what should be a formality turns into a nightmare. Kasnan is definitely caught between a rock and a hard place.
