Summary
Kazakh New Wave iconoclast Ardak Amirkulov's hypnotic thirteenth-century epic is a feverish vision of one of history's most decisive battles, Genghis Khan's siege of the now-lost city of Otrar, engraved in images of stunning, hallucinatory power. When his warnings about an imminent invasion are taken for insolence, a former Mongol scout (Dokhdurbek Kydyraliyev) must escape imprisonment to stop an escalating diplomatic crisis and avert a clash of civilizations. With a panoramic scope that encompasses intimate palace intrigue and the merciless sweep of battlefield carnage, The Fall of Otrar is a monumental imagining of seismic historical upheaval-and a terrifying, electrifying feast for the senses.
