2025 promises viewers an exciting journey into the world of ancient Saka legends and myths.
The animated film in the action and fantasy genre called "Altyn Adam" is being released in wide distribution. The cartoon was created with the support of the Ministry of Culture and Information of the Republic of Kazakhstan and the State Center for Support of National Cinema. The film was directed by Turdybek Maydan and Tlek Toleugazy.
"Altyn Adam" will tell the story of a brave Saka warrior who goes on a dangerous journey to the top of Khan Tengri Peak in search of the mysterious Fire of Life. During his journey, the hero meets loyal friends and dangerous enemies, and after overcoming many trials, he becomes a true warrior, ready to defend his native land from evil.
Turdybek Maydan, director of the cartoon, known for his previous project "Muzbalak", emphasizes that the main goal of "Altyn Adam" is to show that a person can be "golden" not only externally, but also internally. The inspiration for creating the story was the discovery of the Golden Man - a unique archaeological relic found in the Issyk mound. This project is made in 2D format, which allows you to convey the bright and colorful atmosphere of antiquity, including elements of wall paintings and architecture of that time.
"The golden man was covered with gold because his inner world was beautiful, and he was worthy of respect. Human life is a constant struggle with himself. We want to convey an important message to the viewer: you need to remain a "golden" person, respect your humanity, your people and defeat negative qualities in yourself," said director Turdybek Maydan.
The cartoon "Altyn Adam" is not only an exciting story about heroism and self-sacrifice, but also a deep philosophical message that will touch the hearts of viewers of all ages.
