It is also a film reflecting on national heritage. After watching "Whale Rider", I suddenly thought of "Mongolian Spirit". "Mongolian Spirit" is even more depressing, deeply showing the conflict between the inheritance of national culture and modern industrial culture. The Russian nation also has a long history. In 1991, when the film was released, when the Soviet Union disintegrated, the director showed the lack of belonging of the Russian people at that time through this film. The Mongolian people are a nation on horseback. Under the background of the rapid development of modern society, it is very difficult for them to choose and continue their own national culture.
