The film is currently nominated for the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film as a submission from Kazakhstan. The film will be released in the USA and UK on June 6th. The Australian release date is March 20th, 2008.
The movie is an epic story of a young Genghis Khan and how events in his early life lead him to become a legendary conqueror. As a boy he passes through starvation, humiliations and even slavery, but later with the help of his love Borte he overcomes all of his childhood hardships to become one of the greatest conquerors the world has ever known.
