About the project’s features
The documentary series "Dominic West: Kyrgyzstan" is dedicated to the journey of the famous British actor along the historical routes of the Great Silk Road in Kyrgyzstan.
Through the lens of his narrative, the film reveals the characteristics of Kyrgyz culture, nature, history, and modernity.
The journey begins in Bishkek with a visit to the Osh Bazaar and Ala-Too Square, and then immerses into the epic of "Manas."
The route then covers Kara-Suu, the Sary-Chelek Nature Reserve, the Kara-Kamish jailoo, Tash-Rabat, the At-Bashinsky district, and the Torugart Pass — key locations on the Great Silk Road.
