SYNOPSISBig ears can be a real problem, especially when you are not Prince Charles. Asa, our hero, never thought about it - unless he is going to marry...///////// After completing his naval service, young Asa travels back to the Kazakh steppe ehere his sister and her shepherd husband live a nomadic life. To start his new life, eager Asa must get married first before he can become a shepheard himself. Asa's only hope for marriage on the deserted steppe is Tulpan, the daughter of another shepherd family. Poor Asa is disappointed to learn that Tulpan doesn't like him because she thinks that his ears are too big. But Asa doesn't give up and he continues to dream of a life that may not be possible on the steppe...
