Karakyngol

The Mystery of Karakyngol
Mongolia, a wild isolated land with unexplored secrets. Archaeologists, a millennium celebration, a traditional lifestyle and Chinese billionaire – at first sight they have nothing in common, by anything is possible in the wilderness. North to south and east to west, this documentary investigates the essence of the country – where does it heart lie and what are the driving forces of the population? The archaeological expedition in fact discloses the foundations of an entire land that has given rise to several civilisations.
