sjcav.org: «During
the 12th Century a boy is born to a tribal chief. He is named Temujin, which
means "blacksmith." Nine years later, his father is murdered by the Tartars.
After a long struggle, just when Temujin reclaims tribal chief status, the
Merkit tribe kidnaps his wife. In order to fight against the Merkits, Temujin
has to use his mother as a pawn in exchange for troops from ally tribes. Temujin
manages to rescue his wife only to realise that she is pregnant with the enemy's
child. Enduring tremendous anguish, Temujin throws himself into battle against
the Tartars and slaughters the leader of the intruders. He eventually takes his
wife back and accepts her child. Later on, he begins a campaign to unify all
Mongolian tribes. By the age of 40, he is bestowed the title "Genghis Khan",
which means "oceanic ruler". Shot in the Mongol grasslands, produced and played
by an all-Mongolian team, this film is not only visually spectacular, but also
the most coherent in terms of chronicled history amongst the many Genghis Khan
biopics made so far».
