Urga (1991)

The shepherd Gombo lives with his wife, three children and grandmother in a tent on the Mongolian steppe. They are pleased with their rustic conditions, until a Russian truck driver, Serguei, gets stuck with his truck nearby. The cultural gap between Gombo and Serguie seems invincible. But maybe they can learn a few things from each other? (imdb)

Not my favorite in Mikhalkov filmography, but still better than 99% of movies that exist.

A bit too meandering for my tastes and lacking in any exceptional aesthetic properties. Still had a good feeling of bucolic.
