About The Man on the Golden Horse
A romantic story based on the Ural fairytales. The chiefs of two brotherly peoples living in the lands of the Southern Urals had a son - the rich man Altynduga and a daughter - the beautiful Ai. One day they met and fell in love with each other. Meanwhile, the ruler of the kingdom of evil, Katil-Badtsha, and the insidious sorceress Myasekai quarreled their peoples by cunning and deceit in order to rob and enslave them. So the lovers were separated.
Directed by Vasily Zhuravlyov, The Man on the Golden Horse leans on a strong ensemble — Fidan Gafarov, Irina Malysheva, Ilshat Yumagulov — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about fantasy titles of 1981.
