Mongol (Russia/Mongolia - subtitled)
The legend of Genghis Khan is chronicled in this stunning historical epic by Russian filmmaker Sergei Bodrov. The film follows a young warrior born as Temudgin from boyhood to the eve of world conquest in 1206, when he would become the Genghis Khan known and feared by millions.
As it follows Temudgin from his perilous childhood to the battle that sealed his destiny, the film paints a multidimensional portrait of the future conqueror, revealing him not as the evil brute of hoary stereotype, but as an inspiring, fearless and visionary leader. Mongol shows us the making of an extraordinary man, and the foundation on which so much of his greatness rested: his relationship with his wife, Borte, his lifelong love and most trusted advisor.
