Tuya's Marriage is a 2006 Chinese film directed by Wang Quan'an. The film depicts life in Inner Mongolia, in a region where the decline in groundwater is making life hard for sheep herders. It tells the story of Tuya and her husband, Bater, who agree to divorce in the hope of finding a husband who will be prepared to look after both of them and their children. Nan Yu played the role of Tuya; many male cast members were played by non-actors with the same name as their character.[1]
