Chingiz Khan: A Much Misunderstood Leader

Synopsis
Chingiz (Genghis) Khan (1162-1227), the Mongol leader, built an empire larger than any other state system before or since. Had he been born in Europe, he might be seen as a hero; because he came from Central Asia, popular western history denounces him. This reappraisal by Tariq Ali was filmed in Mongolia.
