The Kazakh President’s TV and Radio Complex’s national film lecture series From Chronicle to the Future continues bringing documentary films to audiences across Kazakhstan. The latest screening was held in Zhezkazgan, featuring a program of four documentaries. The opening film, Aral, tells the story of the sea and the life of Kuntugan Turgynbayev, who devoted nearly 50 years to fishing. The program also featured Kuatty Seriktes, a documentary highlighting the outcomes of President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev’s visit to Japan in December 2025. The screening drew a large audience, with viewers saying the films offered a fresh perspective on pivotal events and Kazakhstan’s history. On the second day, Zhezkazgan residents will be able to watch The Tiger: From Taiga to Steppe and Sert (The Oath).
«I was especially impressed by the film about the Aral
Sea. It managed to capture not only the fate of the sea but also the lives of
the people who live in the region. The story of one fisherman became a
reflection of the difficult fate of the entire local population. Indeed, one can
say that the fate of the Aral Sea and its restoration is a matter that concerns
the whole world. It is a very important issue that is being raised today,» shared Yeltyndy
Duisenbayev, a resident of Zhezkazgan.
