《一匹白马的热梦》又名《杀死一匹蒙古马》以现代内蒙古为背景，捕捉了生活在中国北部边缘的蒙古族牧民的独特经历——他们兼具汉蒙双重身份，在从游牧传统逐渐过渡到工业化现实的过程中，始终保持着独特的身份认同。
赛那在内蒙古的寒冬草原上当牧民，努力维持生计。他晚上参加精彩绝伦的马术表演，白天则照顾家里的马匹，同时还要应付脾气暴躁的父亲以及与前妻和孩子之间不和睦的关系。与他在剧中饰演的威严骑兵不同，赛那必须发现他成长的世界已经发生了翻天覆地的变化。

TO KILL A MONGOLIAN HORSE offers a voice from modern Inner Mongolia, capturing the unique experience of ethnic Mongolian herders living on the Northern edge of China — with their Chinese and Mongolian identities, caught in the gradual shift from nomadic traditions to industrial realities.
Saina tries to make ends meet as a herdsman in the wintery steppes of Inner Mongolia. While performing at night in breathtaking horseback shows, he by day takes care of his family’s horses while juggling a grumpy father and his dysfunctional relationship with his ex-wife and kid. Unlike the majestic cavalryman he portrays in the show, Saina must discover how the world he grew up in has dramatically changed.
