Filmmaker Alisi Telengut's own official website page for her 2012 short film Tengri. Its own synopsis reads in full: "Tengri is about the Wind Burial, a traditional Mongolian ritual that is deeply rooted in the Shamanic belief. When a person dies, the wind spirit will guide the person's soul to ascend, ultimately to the cradle of father heaven (Tengri). 'Tengri' is a Turkic word, which refers not only the holy, blue sky, but also the primary deity of nature that has been worshipped by Mongolic and Turkic peoples. It compromises Shamanism, Animism and other spiritual practices that connect people, spirits and nature together." The National Screen Institute of Canada carries the same synopsis on its own festival page, and the Asian Film Archive (Singapore) featured the film in its own Asian Cinema Digest.
