Andrey Borisov, a famous Yakut director, has finished filming episodes for 'On Chingis'Khan's Will' film in the Tuvan landscapes. The film is a joint Russian-Mongolina-American venture. For the main role of the legendary warrior out of hundreds of pretenders Tuvan actor Eduard Ondar was selected. Borisov noted him in Kazan (Tatarstan) at 'the Nauruz' theatre festival early summer this year where he headed the jury. The Tuvan theatre showed there 'King Lear' by Shakespear with Eduard Ondar in the motley man image. As Borisov later on confessed it struck him immediately on seeing Eduard on the stage: 'That's the Man!'

The Dalai Lama's only visit to the traditionally Buddhist Russian republic of Tuva was in 1992. Since then, none of the "very many attempts" to invite him to the republic has come close to success, a former kamby-lama (head Buddhist of Tuva) told Forum 18 News Service. "Religion shouldn't interfere in politics, but we want to see him," Norbu-Sambuu Mart-Ool noted to Forum 18. The Dalai Lama has several times visited Russia's two other traditionally Buddhist republics of Buryatia and Kalmykia. But the main obstacle to a visit to Tuva - which borders Mongolia – seems to be Russian relations with China, which opposes a visit taking place. Geraldine Fagan is reporting on Forum 18 site.
