Synopsis
Golden Horn (Altyn Kernei, 1948) is a Kazakh drama you can watch online on iFILM. High in the Trans-Ili Alatau mountains, young scientist Zhakan Dasanov chases an impossible idea: breeding a brand-new kind of sheep.
His plan is to cross a domestic merino with the wild mountain argali — and first he has to catch the argali. Then come the losses: four ewes dead in the harsh highlands, the single newborn lamb killed by a hunter's stray shot, years with nothing to show. Dasanov refuses to quit and starts over on a far bigger scale. Shaken Aimanov leads, with Pyotr Aleinikov and Lyalya Galimzhanova.
Directed by Yefim Aron, the film honors patient scientific labor — the archaromerino breed really was created in Kazakhstan. Quiet, methodical, made for fans of vintage Kazakhfilm. Stream Golden Horn (1948) online on iFILM.
