Nationwide film lecture series continues in Kokshetau

The nationwide film lecture series From Chronicle to the Future of the Kazakh President’s TV and Radio Complex has now arrived in Kokshetau. Over two days, residents will be presented with four documentaries exploring the history, nature, and modern-day Kazakhstan. The programme opened with The Tiger: From Taiga to Steppe, a documentary about the return of the Turan tiger. It was followed by Travel Kazakhstan, which showcases the country’s natural wealth. Also scheduled for screening are The Man from Kulaly Island and ARAL. Viewers will have an opportunity to meet the filmmakers and ask them questions. The film lecture series has already reached around 20 cities across the country. The project will continue until September, with Almaty as its next venue.


«I am deeply grateful to the creative team behind these documentaries. It turned out incredibly well. They managed to show that the tigers were brought here, which is also very fascinating. I think this is very important, and this initiative should be carried forward and further developed,» shared Nurgul Nurmysheva, a resident of Kokshetau.


«As we know, the last Turan tiger disappeared from Kazakhstan in 1948. Now, four Amur tigers brought from Russia’s Khabarovsk region are expected to be released into the Ile-Balkhash region, the historic habitat of these predators. We hope they will become the foundation of a future population. Most importantly, after 78 years, tigers could once again roam the land of Kazakhstan. I believe this is not only an important conservation project for us, but also a source of great pride,» said Madina Mubarak, a resident of Kokshetau.
