On the distant steppes of Mongolia, using only simple tools, strength and ingenuity, a nomad builds a home much the way his ancestors have for a thousand years.

Mujaan (The Craftsman) is a meditation on work and a vivid window to a disappearing way of life in a pristine wilderness.

The twenty-five minute video was inspired by Baraka's chicken-factory sequence, in which the audience comes to know the process of a modern chicken's life without any narrative explanation.

But his new partners really haven?t any idea who they are dealing with, and no one double-crosses Charlie. It does not take long for him to devise a plan to get back what is rightfully his, restore his reputation and teach his friends and expensive lesson.

Chinatown in New York City is like a traditional village set in the midst of Manhattan. A tightly packed neighborhood of torturously winding and overcrowded streets. Tung Tak Chiu?s days are spent at The Hong Hop Noodle Company right in the ?village?.

He is the man for all jobs in this busy factory. A delightfully humorous individual, with an animated face and with movements that could belong to a dancer.
