Bekzat Pirmatov's debut movie is set in a mountainous Central Asian sanatorium.

Kyrgyzstan has selected Bekzat Pirmatov's Aurora as its submission for the best international feature film category at the 2020 Oscars.

Aurora tells the story of a sanatorium located at the shores of the high mountainous lake Issyk-Kul in Central Asia. A peaceful resort against the backdrop of beautiful nature, the sanatorium serves as a mirror of the entire country of Kyrgyzstan. However, a sudden break of the balance between time and space triggers a chain of irreversible events.

Aurora is Pirmatov's debut feature. The film premiered at last year's Busan International Film Festival.

Aurora is Kyrgyzstan's 12^th submission in the best international feature category since the country became independent in 1991. None of the previous submissions has been nominated for the Academy Awards or won a statuette.

The 92nd Academy Awards are due to take place Feb. 9, 2020.
