Mongolian movie making its way to Academic Awards
映像A Mongolian film – “the Golden Treasure” is competing for the right to become the Best Foreign Language Film nominee of the forthcoming 89th Academy Awards. The film is included in the top 20 among total of 50 works.
Academy Awards require the best foreign language films to raise social problems regarding the environment, ecology, human rights and gender equality. The key message of the “Golden Treasure” is directly connected to the gender issue.
For the above reason, EFILM and the Motion Picture Association of America have given authorization to screen this movie in theatres in the USA.
The storyline shows a girl who was raised as a boy, treated as a boy and forced to act as a boy by her father who desperately wants a son, but instead has four daughters. This story touches upon gender equa-lity and human rights issues.
