BOGD KHAAN (Mongolia) 110mins. Mongolian National Academy Of Film Art. Dir: Tsogtbayar Byamba. Key cast: Batsumiya Batdorj, Bold Choimbol, Chimedtseye Shar. Before the democratic changes in 1990, socialist ideology influenced every field of art such as film and literature. The activities of eminent Buddist monks, mainly the personality and efforts of head lama, the eighth Bogd Javzandamba Khutagt Bogd Khaan (1870-1924), become
distorted. He appeared as the main enemy of the Mongolian people’s revolution, and the poisoner of D Sukhbaatar- leader of the red revolution. These perverted views still exist in people’s mind. This year we are going to celebrate 100th anniversary of Mongolian national independence. Gray 3
