Summary |
Moose, called kandahan by the locals, is the largest animal in the Greater Khingan mountains forest. It is beautiful, strapping, and sensitive. Besides, it is the means of transportation for the Evenki people and is regarded as a symbol of good luck and happiness. But with the ecological destruction and rampant poaching, it is hard to see a moose again. However, The Last Moose of Aoluguya is not a documentary about the moose. What the camera really follows, is an Evenki hunter Weijia, who has moose's lonely temperament. He feels lost after the government banned hunting. He drinks and writes poems in memory of a bygone age and the days with the moose. Weijia decides to seek for the moose's footprints into the forest in the spring. After that, he has a brief love affair and moves to Hainan. How does the lonely hunter handle his situation in the new century? Where is the last moose? Infinite boundless, vanished beast, and the last hunter, seem to unified in front of the camera.The Last Moose of Aoluguya is the last documentary of Gu Tao's Evenki trilogy |
