Altai. The Beginning of Beginnings 2011

Directed by Dmitry Lavrinenko

Since ancient times, Altai has been the cradle of countless peoples and tribes, the birthplace of conquerors, and the source of myths and legends. Altai is a unique cauldron in which different nationalities have mixed, and it is not for nothing that it is called the "crossroads of civilizations." The world of the ancient Scythians, Turks, Huns and many others was tempered and forged into a special ethnic group. This film tells about the interweaving of religions, nationalities, cultures and about the present day of Altai.
