Remote Control

In the rough slums of Ulan Bator, a teenage boy named Tsog struggles to support his family by selling milk. With his imagination as his only escape, Tsog's drawings of a young monk hero bring him solace. After a fierce argument with his parents, Tsog flees to the city, finding refuge on the roof of an apartment building. There, he spots a beautiful but troubled young woman living in a luxurious penthouse. Determined to connect with her, Tsog steals a remote control and begins to manipulate her television set from afar. As their lives become intertwined, Tsog and the young woman must confront the vast disparities between their worlds and find a way to bridge their differences.
