Overview

Archery is in the Mongol blood. After all, Genghis Khan conquered half the world with it. In this short study of Olympic archers by director Lucy Walker (who has brought to Mountainfilm Waste Land 2010, The Tsunami and the Cherry Blossom 2011 and The Crash Reel 2013), we see how long traditions in self-control, concentration and calm still shape the modern Mongolian sport.
