Sinekatalog’s take

Wang Quan'an's drama follows an Inner Mongolian herder who must find a husband willing to also keep her injured first husband. Yu Nan won Berlin's Golden Bear in a warm, tough and quietly moving portrait of endurance.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
