The Adventures of Aligermaa
1998 · 1 hr 7 mins
Nine-year-old Aligermaa and her family live on the Mongolian steppes where they breed horses, in harmony with the harsh nature surrounding them. Aligermaa adores and dreams of horses, and is happily surprised when her family enroll her in the annual horse race during the national festival of Naadam. Aligermaa is proud, but also a little nervous, especially when she learns that she will train with the famous horse trainer Sodnom – and that she will be riding the white stallion. But on a stormy night before the race Aligermaa's horse is attacked and wounded, and suddenly nothing seems certain. The Adventures of Aligermaa is a vivid and thrilling documentary. The filmmakers seemingly had close contact with the main characters and their culture, and the result is a heartfelt film with breathtaking panoramas and a captivating storyline.
Director: Andra Lasmanis
