1. Another art film that looks at the East with a Western eye and pours a glass of wine on one's own blocks. ".
2. Its purpose is to satisfy the imagination of the author himself and more Westerners about the East; after all, creating another cultural "exotic" and "others" in this exotic makes people who are tired of local culture a place to go. Travel spiritually. For example, the sensual city people occasionally go to Tibet, and the more uncomfortable they are there, the happier they feel, and they feel that it is not in vain. 3.
Compared with the film produced by the model of "Mongolian Spirit", compared with the travel videos of individuals traveling abroad and taking a home camera to shoot local customs and customs, apart from the higher cost and larger scale, there is not much artistic essence. different.

5 At the beginning of the movie, the prairie man chased his wife in the city with a horse pole. After he got it, he jumped up and wanted to live a married life. In my opinion, this paragraph is an excellent metaphor for the creative thinking of this film: Westerners take their own concepts and put them on the Mongolian herdsmen's heads, and they want to feel refreshed after they put them on. As a result, the weak woman kicked the man aside and said it was okay, please wear a condom. This plot tells us once again that we are all human, and there is no such big difference. Some "art" filmmakers like to travel around the world to search for wonders like cultural colonists. Don't forget that no matter how much you walk around, it is still on the same plane. There will never be those works that really dig down the inner world of individuals behind cultural labels. There is power.
Some facts about the film:
The Mongol Spirit was the first Russian film after the collapse of the Soviet Union to be nominated for an Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film (the French film Indochina eventually won), in addition to several other Nominated for film festival awards, and once won the Golden Lion Award at the Venice Film Festival in 1991, it is loved by art film lovers all over the world (except Mongolia and Inner Mongolia).
