The Eagle Huntress Everyone enjoys those inspiring films that stop you from thinking about the daily rush and
fill your heart with the wonders of life - from animated children's classics to science-fiction
films about saving the universe. 1
The Eagle Huntress is a Kazakh-language documentary film from British director Otto Bell.
It records the true story of Aisholpan Nurgaiv, a 13-year-old girl whose dream was to
become an eagle hunter like her father and grandfather.
For over a thousand years, the nomads have hunted with golden eagles. However, this
precious skill has been traditionally handed from father to son. 2
The film follows her
on a journey, from capturing her first baby eagle, through training, to competing in a
contest against experienced adult eagle hunters.
Otto Bell got the idea for the film when he saw some photos online of Aisholpan training
with her father's eagle. 3 He spent all his savings on 700 kg of equipment and two
cameramen to operate it, because he believed the world needed to hear Aisholpan's story.
Filming was hard work. The snow and the dust, the speed of Aisholpan's golden eagle, and
the lack of electricity in the area made getting even simple shots a challenge. 4 They
used drones for aerial shots and strapped tiny cameras to Aisholpan and her eagle.
5 Their hard work paid off, and the final film beautifully captures the stunning
scenery, the nomads' fascinating lifestyle, and their wonderful relationship with nature.
The Eagle Huntress is a popular and highly-praised film, not only because it tells the story of
a strong and brave girl, but because of what her story shows us. 6 As the Australian
musician, Sia, sings over the closing credits of The Eagle Huntress, "You can do anything." С 5 ЗАДАНИЕМ Complete with: strong,closing,true,aerial,praised 1) I like films that are based on stories and real events
