Beshkempir: The Adopted Son (Krygyztan, 1998)
Inspired by an old custom, first-time writer/director Aktan Abdikalikov illustrates the semi-autobiographical story of a young boy named Beshkempir. This is a coming of age story and one of discovery, when Bashkempir discovers that his parents are not his biological parents. This film was produced and made in Kyrgyztan.
