It's an intriguing looking film. I was trawling for films made by mongols about mongolian history of which there seems to be an increasing number and came across it. Same with korean and chines films. They're such a different culture. I know of a couple of sites where you can watch on line for free but it doesn't seem to be there. I am extremely reluctant to sign up on-line for anything I get enough spam as it is.

Is the sound box of that "cello" really a skull?
ETA. That soundtrack is magnificent!

No it's a cello there's a couple of other videos around. It's quite evocative though. Music possibly started with some bored caveman banging two bones together or hitting a skull and realising he could change the pitch. If you listen to "world" music or basic folk music from around the world there's a basic connection that transcends all cultures. I think so anyway. North American and Mongol rhythms are startlingly similar although I can hardly claim to be an expert or even studied any more than in passing. Same with celtic music, scots and irish and in eastern europe you hear the same basics that we all recognise and respond to. Don't ask me why.

It certainly sounded like a cello but the instrument in the video was no cello I've ever seen - two stringed with the strangest fingering you can imagine
