Genghis Khan's Story

Brutal tyrant or man of vision?


Always strike first and always take revenge. Genghis Khan learnt these lessons the hard way during a violent childhood.


Son of a murdered father, Genghis grew up in the unforgiving environment of the Mongolian Steppe. But how did an outcast, raised in poverty, come to be the great Khan?


Combining live-action footage shot in Mongolia with CGI software used in Lord of the Rings, the recreation of battle scenes is taken to a new level in presenting the story of how Genghis conquered an empire greater than the Roman Empire at its peak.
