Poets of Mongolia

 

Belgium 1999

Production: Inti Films

Structured around the transformation of coal into energy, Poets of Mongolia evokes the meaning of poetry in the daily life of ordinary people who are trying to cope with harsh reality in a rapidly changing world. Through poetry a miner praises nature, a heating technician evokes man's destiny, a blind singer expresses her wish to see, and an expatriate finds the strength to survive in a foreign country.

Poets of Mongolia is the third part of Inti Films' Mongolia Trilogy (City of the Steppes, 1994, State of Dogs, 1998)

Award:
"Mongolian State Award Best Documentary 1999"
