Studio Synopsis: Mongol delves into the dramatic and
harrowing early years of the ruler who was born as Temudgin in 1162. As it follows Temudgin
from his perilous childhood to the battle that sealed his destiny, the film paints a
multidimensional portrait of the future conqueror, revealing him not as the evil brute of hoary
stereotype, but as an inspiring, fearless and visionary leader. Mongol shows us the making of
an extraordinary man, and the foundation on which so much of his greatness rested: his
relationship with his wife, Borte, his lifelong love and most trusted advisor.
