«Gauhartas» in Uralsk

«Gauhartas» is the Timeless Story of Love and Fate on the Kazakh Steppe, a heartfelt drama that spans generations, portraying the life of a humble Kazakh shepherd family from 1975 to the present day. At the core of the story are two brothers raised in the same home, yet shaped by entirely different values - one hardened by life’s trials, the other gentle and kind.

Everything changes when Saltanat, a young bride, enters their home, bringing warmth and light with her pure soul and love for music. Her tender nature earns the deep affection of her in-laws, setting the stage for an unforgettable tale of love, devotion, and sacrifice.

But this story is not just about one kind of love - two different kinds of love unfold. The first is Saltanat’s unwavering love for her husband, Tastan, while the second is the unspoken, boundless love that her brother-in-law, Qairken, holds for her.
