The idea of Khadak was born in 1999 when Peter Brosens was filming the last part of his Mongolian trilogy, Poets of Mongolia.
It explores the events which concern Bagi, a nomadic herder, during his coming of age and the forced relocation of his people.
Eventually, Bagi meets a woman named Zolzaya, who participates in raids against the freight trains which transport coal away from the facility.
As Bagi fights to overcome his epilepsy, together with Zolzaya he leads a group of young people who try to disrupt the mining operations and enliven the despondent populace to return to their nomadic lifestyle.
