The aim is to change our view of him to a heroic figure who against all odds, achieved greatness.

Most know his name, but very few really know the story behind Genghis. The history of this man is saddening. He suffered from a violent childhood and his father was murdered. Growing up in an unforgiving environment of the Mongolian Steppe, was not easy. So, how did he rise above his tragedies? How did a man raised in poverty, an outcast end up becoming the great Khan.
