Galymbek Karaturik, a stunt
performer from the Kazakh team of the Nomad Stunts International Action Company,
clinched the top spot at the Athvikvaruni International Film Festival in India
featuring over 240 entries from around the world. Galymbek directed the film
that won in the Best International Short Film category and played one of the
roles demonstrating his stunt expertise. He is now sharing his extensive
experience with students at the Kazakh National University of Arts. In the near
future, the actor plans to release several short and feature films.
“I took part in the international film festival
to assess and improve my professional skills. It was a successful
project for me. As for the movie, every nation has its own ‘Dim Light’ philosophy.
Our nation’s philosophy is about unity with nature, this is what I wanted to
convey. I am both the scriptwriter and director of this movie. The stuntmen of
the Nomad Stunts International Action Company, with whom I have been working
for seven years, also took part in this movie,” said Karaturik.
It is noteworthy that the Kazakh stunt team has
been recognized as one of the best in the world. For the work in the film
‘Tomiris’, Nomad Stunts was awarded the Taurus Prize, often referred to as the
Oscars of stunt work.
