Based on the novel "Zanabazar" by folk writer Seng Erden, this film reflects the historical life and creative path of Zanabazar, popularly known as "High Saint". Gombodorji Zanabazar (1635-1723), the first head of Mongolian Zoroastrianism, the first Bogd, and sculptor, was born in the area of ​​Usan-i-sum in Tusheet Khan Province, now in Uvorkhangai Province. Zanabazar was brought up in a religious school from a young age, and at the age of 15 he was recognized as the incarnation of Jawzandamba. G. Zanabazar's mistakes cannot be forgiven as he played a dark role in losing the country's independence by subjugating Manchuria. However, as he was a man who spoke several Eastern languages, composed the Mongolian Soyombo alphabet, wrote poems, was a sculptor, and a multifaceted scholar, his artistic works became very famous.
