Beside the River
images
This is the first audiovisual work about the Keriyans.
In the hinterland of the Taklamakan Desert, the Keriya River, rising in the Kunlun Mountains and flowing northward, forms a green corridor about 400 km long and 5 km wide. The lower reaches of the river are called Daria-boyi, which means "riverside". The people living here for generations are called the Keriyan.
Saderoz is 85 years old. He has lived with his family at the place called Kuikejiyidai (means green oleaster) in Daria-boyi for four generations. Rabiehan, his parturient granddaughter, will give birth to a baby, his great grandchild and the first member of the eighth generation of the family. However, quite a few people nearby have privately called the upcoming baby a “bastard”.
Rabiehan has been married once before. Later she got acquainted with Stick, a truck driver, and became his lover. Only when Rabiehan was close to giving birth did Stick divorce his wife and marry Rabiehan. Rabiehan hopes she can have a good family with Stick, together with her upcoming baby and his child.
But, Rabiehan's two maternal uncles think this will bring disgrace to the family. They don't want the baby to be born.
Rabiehan’s mother, after having undergone two failed marriages, wishes to have the baby. This grandchild will be her only hope and spiritual ballast in the latter part of her life.
Saderoz was the last one to know that his granddaughter was pregnant. He didn't speak a word about it.
The great grandchild of Saderoz is born regardless of other people's gossip. The baby is a girl. A naming ceremony should be held in the 40th day after her birth. Saderoz askes a man to find the baby's father Stick. Meanwhile, he notifies his relatives and acquaintances far and near to attend the naming ceremony of his great granddaughter.
The day before the ceremony, the man comes back with a bad news: he didn't find Stick. The Saderoz family all shed tears.
The naming ceremony is on schedule. Saderoz gives his great granddaughter a name associated with an Islamic holy site-Medinahan.
