Mongol
Do not hate a weak child,
it may be the son of a tiger!
TUNGUS KINGDOM:
a film by Sergei Bodrov Sr
Mongol
The monk you've sent
to find your wife is dead.
Do you hear me?
Tungus steppe,
When I was 9, my father was taking
me to the merkits to find a bride.
Some time ago he stole from them my
mother and they have not forgotten that.
Now my father had
to make peace with them.
So he decided to marry me off to a merkit.
I could not refuse.
Here lives my friend Dai-Sechen.
We'll sleep over his place.
Welcome, my friend Esugei!
I am glad to see you.
Your son has grown.
Please come in.
What's your name?
- Temujin.
I should be the one to ask first you know.
How old are you?
Nine.
You're younger than me.
By how much?
By one year.
Why have you come?
I'm going over to the merkits to find a bride.
We decided to sleep over here.
Wise people come to
our clan, to choose brides.
Goodbye Temujin.
Wait! What's your name?
- Borte.
Temujin,
it's me you should chose!
Well Done!
Lets wrestle Targutay!
I'm drunk and you'll beat me.
You're not only stupid,
but you're weak too!
Mosquitoes here are vicious.
I want to choose a bride from here.
Why would you do that?
This clan is weak.
Wise people come here to find brides.
I have to make my peace with the merkits.
I'll just give it a go.
They'll be Insulted if you dont choose
If their clan is weak,
let them be insulted.
Remember what
I am about to tell you now!
It is important not to go wrong
nd chose your bride correctly.
Her face should be flat
like the surface of the salt lake.
And the eyes narrow.
Evil spirits dive in
wide eyes and she goes mad.
She will not see
what is for real.
And most important: don't forget
to look at their feet.
The stronger
womens' feet are,
the bigger the pleasure
the man gets. Got it?
You will be my bride.
- I will.
I've chosen my bride.
For her, I'll give you a sable skin coat.
Your son did the right choice.
Right or not, time will tell.
We can go on our way now.
You are right. This is
a great honor for my clan.
They can get wed in 5 years.
This is a white crow' bone. If you rub
it any whish of yours comes true.
I'll be back in 5 years.
Why didn't you listen to me?
You're stubborn
and did it all your way.
I saw her and I immediately
knew she is my bride.
What am I to say to the merkits now?
They wont forgive me this.
Oh well,
be what it may.
We were going home,
and my father was silent.
Finally he told me:
You did right.
A man should choose his bride himself.
I didn't know this day
will change my life forever.
Are you afraid?
Yes.
When there's thunder
it means god Tengri is angered.
That's why all Mongols
are afraid of thunder.
Enemies!
spilled in a resting camp.
Please accept this milk from my master
- Thank you. Have a seat
Thank you.
Esugei, let the servant drink first.
Look at how they stare at us.
They are our enemies.
But if I Knan Esugei
break the custom,
the world will turn up side down.
You're not well Esugei,
lets stop.
Shut your mouth
You cant decide.
They poisoned our khan!
Scum!
I'm leaving you son.
You are the khan now.
Be strong!
And pray to our god, the master
of the blue sky- the almighty Tengri,
and he will help you...
Take everything!
Dont you dare!
That's the khans' stud!
He protected you!
Go away!
You're ungrateful
Khan Esugei is dead.
My son is khan now
He'll take his vengeance on you!
You wish for his death?
Run! Quick!
- Get him!
What madness got
into you Tarugai?!
Why do you break our custom?
Mongols dont kill children!
Be damned Tarugai!
You and the filthy barrows of your dead!
Like Esugei used to say:
"Never break the custom,
even if you really want to."
I'll kill him when he grows up.
Tarugai!
Tell the people
I dont want to be khan.
You dog! Everyone
has forgotten you already.
So why kill me?
I'll kill you!
I'll kill you first.
Scum!
You have to be strong!
Eat!
Drink.
Those flies suck your blood.
Temujin!
Your clan left.
Jamuha, brother,
find my bride.
Tell her to wait for me.
He's still small.
Give him more food!
I want him grown when I'm back.
Almighty Tengri, master
of the blue sky! I am Temujin.
If you hear me,
help me!
That winter I couldn't
go back home.
The one who
could help me,
was my brother Jamuha.
It was a long way,
but I had no other choice.
I knew they were looking for me,
so they could kill me.
the year of the Fiery Horse.
I survived because our
I was ready now to
face my enemies.
But first I had to find
My bride Borte.
And then I would take back
what was mine.
I thought you were dead.
I live...
You know why I came.
It's been many years.
I dont know if she
would agree to be with you.
My Temujin came back.
Father,
I have to leave with Temujin.
Bring the sable skin coat.
Why wont you
touch me Temujin?
I fear suffocating you.
My son!
Temujin!
I like you.
You're strong like I am.
You're good and kind.
This is my dowry.
It's too expensive for me.
This is for you.
Brother, when will you raise your yurt?
Tomorrow.
It's good my brother came back.
And with a beautiful wife too.
Got you!
I will be a good wife.
I know.
Stay here!
Oelun!
Chilidu!
You knew my voice?
Women dont forget the first man.
Hey, come down!
I want to look at you.
Why would I want to
look at you old crone?
I need your daughter-in-law.
Get lost!
They're not here
Be gone!
Shut up!
Hasar!
Watch out!
Where are they?
Speak!
I found their tracks
Temujin!
I waited so long for you.
Many times
I rubbed this bone.
I had one wish only -
your return
I want always to be with you
Temujin.
I promise you that.
Merkits!
Go home!
When Temujins' father
stole my bride,
I swore revenge.
Now you're mine!
Take her!
My son!
Brother!
What have they done to you?
Hello Jamuha, brother!
I am glad you're alive brother.
Take this gift my brother.
When I learned the
merkits stole your wife,
I felt sick in my liver.
I want to talk to you.
Mongols do not war because of women
I'll tell Taichar
to give two new women.
I need Borte.
Have you tried
Dou you think
only her legs are strong?
I havent got much time.
Greet him!
Taichar, the merkits
insulted my brother
How many riders can you rally?
I'll fight and
I'll rally others.
It's not enough, brother.
I know that.
That's why I came to you.
Fine, I'll help you.
We'll go next year.
Why next year?
Next year will be
better for war.
We'll wait.
Just dont tell anyone
you started a war because of a woman.
These are merkits' lands.
Who are you?
I knew you would come.
Borte, I cant live without you!
This is my son.
I can see that.
Are you happy you
got your wife back?
I would be afraid
to sleep with such like her
