The Alash Movement, a remarkable socio-political phenomenon that shaped some of the brightest chapters of Kazakh history, played a crucial role in steering the nation’s cultural and spiritual development onto a new course. It marked a moment when the Kazakh people rose to political and cultural prominence, daring to dream of living freely and equally among the world’s nations. The Alash Movement inspired a generation to believe in national sovereignty and independence.

The Path of Alash is the path of the Kazakh nation itself.

Bridging the early 20th century and the modern age, this production delves into the lives of the Alash leaders - Alikhan Bokeikhanov, Akhmet Baitursynov, Mirzhakyp Dulatov, Alikhan Yermekov - and tells the story of the hardships they endured during the nation’s most turbulent times.
