Combining insightful interviews, fast cuts, and exciting competitive action, The Mongolian Eagle offers a privileged glimpse into the ancient and secretive world of sumo. Meet Kyokushuzan, a Mongolian wrestler who guides us through the hierarchy and rituals of this complex society as he pursues his goal to overcome all odds and become a Yokuzuna, or Grand Champion. Stunning visuals of Japanese and Mongolian landscapes intercut with behind-the-scenes revelations show us at first hand the difficult transitions these two ancient cultures deal with in their struggle to survive in the modern world.
