This film is better than the Amannishahan (1993) made more than three decades later, however, the good performance is tarnished by the governmental political propaganda:
The former-KGB had successfully instigated mass exodus of Chinese ethnic minorities to former-USSR in the early 1960's, in which more than 62000 Chinese citizen fled to former-Kazak S.S.R. from China and this film was made as a political propaganda to counter that of former-Soviets.
