Plot

In the middle of the 13th century, following the death of "The Iron Sultan, Alaeddin Keykubat," Mongols attack Anatolian Seljuks to destroy the last power against "The Great Khan". Allegiance or independence turns into an issue of debate among the Seljuk statesmen.

Sinekatalog’s take

Seljuk statesmen debate loyalty or independence as Mongols close in. The Turkish historical epic offers swords, council scenes and some grandeur, with budget limits showing. Fine for fans of period action.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
