The fascination of the mysterious, the unfamiliar, the exotic: monks and hunters in the harsh desert of Tibet, as well as English interventionist troops and fur-traders. A young Mongolian is cheated, puts up a fight, gets caught up between the two parties in the conflict and survives thanks to a mysterious document.
A fairy tale from remote worlds and times, full of mysterious images, ritual dances and wild hunting scenes. The unknown world of the desert landscape and the strange-looking dwellings of the indigenous inhabitants point beyond mere illustration, thereby acquiring a dramaturgic significance that is steeped in even more secrets thanks to its faraway exoticism. The film's protagonist is particularly fascinating: with his temperament and ingenuousness, he survives unusual situations, which always contain surprising turns. The turbulent, furious finale of the film is famous: the actors are virtually swallowed up and disappear in a huge tornado of human beings and elements nature.

Narratively, it definitely isn't it and the film didn't have anything to grab onto. It's more of a visual film, composed of individual scenes that are clumsily stitched together and explained for certainty. The characters are not the ones you would fall in love with, maybe because most of them don't act, they are simply captured. The story itself is quite interesting, but presented like this, it didn't impress me.
