Mongol (2007)

Synopsis:
Recounts the early life of Genghis Khan who was a slave, born as Temudgin in 1162, before going on to conquer half the world, including Russia, in 1206. The film begins with Genghis Khan in chains – a sight, believe me, that soon becomes familiar. It then flashes back to the late 1100s, when the tyro-tyrant was a nine-year-old named Temudgin.

He and his father and a handful of retainers ride across the Mongolian steppe to visit another tribe, so that Temudgin can choose the future Mrs Khan. But, on the return journey, his father is fatally poisoned. Temudgin may still be a child – and a cute, cuddly child at that – but the title of Khan is already his.

Mongol was nominated for this year's Best Foreign Language Film Oscar.
