5 Stars
This documentary is absitively posolutely fantabulous!! The
true story of a 13-year-old girl, Aisholpan, a Kazakh nomad who bucks tradition
to become an Eagle Huntress. And very possibly goes back to the old times,
pre-Islam, when Mongol women had more autonomy. She does not rebel, there is no
great teenage angst, there is a loving and supportive family. Her father is an
Eagle Hunter, and undertakes her training, including the capture and raising of
her own eagle.
Fantastic photography, heart-warming story, an interesting
glimpse into another culture. Recommended for the entire family.
