SYNOPSIS: Tsogt and Enkh-Uulen live a life full of love and comfort. Yet, after five years of childless marriage, an unspoken void lingers in their hearts. On the other side, Buyanaa and Sergelen, a couple of limited means, are preparing to welcome their fourth child. Hoping for a better future, they decide to give the newborn up for adoption to Tsogt and Enkh-Uulen. From the moment Enkh-Uulen lays eyes on the baby boy, she is overwhelmed with the profound feeling of motherhood.

As the years pass, Enkh-Uulen gives birth to a biological child of her own. This marks a turning point in Tsogt’s behavior, as his affection begins to tilt toward his biological son.

The film delves into the delicate nature of parental love, ultimately affirming that family is not defined by blood, but by the strength of emotional bonds.
