The Cinema of Kazakhstan has a rich history that dates back to the early 20th century. The first Kazakh film, "Amangeldy" (1928), marked the beginning of the national film industry. Over the years, Kazakhstan has produced a variety of films, including dramas, comedies, and documentaries, reflecting the country's diverse culture and history. In recent years, the Kazakh film industry has gained international recognition, with films like "The Eagle Huntress" and "Tulip Time" receiving awards at various film festivals. The government has also invested in the industry, promoting local talent and encouraging co-productions with foreign filmmakers to enhance the global presence of Kazakh cinema.
