A review of "Khadak"


I’ll be the first to admit, the story was a little strange to my Western senses. Or maybe I’m not enough of a mystic. Either way I followed it in broad strokes, but there was much that I missed. I’m sure of that much.

That said, it is worth seeing if you’re a visual sort. It is eye candy. The movie was shot in Mongolia in the winter. Yes, that’s right. In the winter. So the landscape was extra super stark and the air was clear in ways that only winter air can be. It lent to the atmosphere of the movie. It kind of makes me want to check out Mongolia.
