Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })Remote Control is a 2013 film from Mongolia directed by Byamba Sakhya.Tsogoo is a teenaged boy who lives in a dilapidated yurt village on the outskirts of the capital of Ulaanbaatar. His is not a happy home life: his father is a drunken slob, his stepmother hates him, and his mother is nowhere to be seen. He is eking out a very meager existence riding the train into the city every day to sell fresh-from-the-cow milk to city dwellers. He is tempted by his older brother, who has left for the city and is now living as a petty thief and burglar. He is a talented artist but his skill does him no good in a dumpy countryside village.Eventually Tsogoo stops going back home. He finds a spot atop an apartment building in the city and makes himself a crude shelter out of cardboard and plastic sheeting. He owns a pair of binoculars, and uses it in idle moments to watch the people in the apartments. He starts focusing on one particular person: Anu, a housewife whose marriage is on the rocks.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_2'); }) | |

Arc Symbol: Flying, as a means of freedom and escape. Tsogoo's father tells an old folk tale about a young monk named Bunya, who built his own parachute as a means of flight; we see this story dramatized on the screen. Tsogoo draws a flip book about the flying monk. One of the problems with Anu's marriage is that her deathly fear of flying prevents her from spending time with her husband when he leaves the country to work (it seems he has a job in Berlin). Tsogoo often finds himself gazing at planes flying overhead. He draws a sketch of himself and Anu flying together. At different times Anu walks by the offices of a Mongolian airline and Tsogoo walks past an advertising poster for United Airlines. | |

The Alcoholic: Tsogoo's father is a sloppy drunk who apparently doesn't work but does sell family possessions to buy liquor. | |
