28KDie Flügel der Menschen: Directed by Aktan Arym Kubat. With Nuraly Tursunkojoev, Zarema Asanalieva, Aktan Arym Kubat, Taalaikan Abazova. Centaur lives a modest life with his family in rural Kyrgyzstan until he abruptly becomes the center of attention when he is caught stealing a racehorse at night. A story inspired by the myth when horses became the wings of men.
“First of all its a really simple storyline: An old family father becomes a thief, when he steals horses to ride them in the night. The character himself is friendly but as well as controvesrial, as stealing horses is a crime in Kyrgyzstan, even in the 21st century. But the hero sticks to old times, where all people has been families and living in tents, and horses with wings were the gate to heaven.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe movie has a lot of modern, western elements, which makes it much more accesible, comparable to some of the kyrgiz movies from the past – its not an art movie at all, it is the visible evolution of the Kyrgyz cinema.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI´ve bee living in Kyrgyzstan for a year. Know all the areas and beautiful landscapes. I was watching kyrgyz movies ten years back, and I have to say I havent had high expectations for u0026quot;Centauru0026quot;. But the movie became such an lovely cinema experience for me that I felt like to be there in this beautiful country.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eGreetings to Ernest Abdyjaparov from David.”
