Oscars: Mongolia Selects 'Veins of the World' for International Feature Category www.hollywoodreporter.com

Mongolia has picked the drama Veins of the World from director Byambasuren Davaa as its official entry for the 2021 Academy Awards in the best international feature category.
The film follows Amra, an 11-year-old boy living a traditional nomad life on the Mongolian steppe who sees his way of life threatened by the encroachment of international mining companies, who are devastating the natural habitat in their search for gold. Amra's father Erdene is the leader of the last nomads opposing them. When he dies, his son decides to take up the fight.
Veins of the World premiered at the Berlin Film Festival last year. Telepool's Global Screen is handling international sales. The Mongolian title is a late entry into the Oscar race. Academy members will vote Feb. 1-5 on the 2021 shortlist, which this year will include 15 international features.
But Davaa is no stranger to the Oscars. Her debut, The Story of the Weeping Camel, was nominated in the best documentary feature category in 2005. She also won acclaim for The Cave of the Yellow Dog and Two Horses of Genghis Khan, two other documentaries set among Mongolian nomad communities. Veins of the World is her feature film debut.
Commenting on the film's Oscar submission by Mongolia, Davaa noted that the environmental issues raised by Veins of the World "have long become a global issue, not just a local one."
After its Berlin debut, Veins of the World was picked up by several international distributors, including Les Films du Preau in France, Surtsey Films in Spain and Angel Films for Scandinavia. Pandora Film will release the movie in German later this year.
The nominations for the 93rd Academy Awards will be announced on March 15. The 2021 Oscar ceremony is scheduled for April 25.

Assessment of gas trunkline across Mongolia advance www.ogj.com

Gazoprovod Soyuz Vostok has been registered in Mongolia as part of an August 2020 memorandum of intent between Gazprom and the government of Mongolia to set up a special purpose vehicle to perform design and survey works and conduct a feasibility study regarding construction of a gas trunkline to supply Russian gas across Mongolia to China.
“With the Soyuz Vostok gas pipeline, Russia's Power of Siberia 2 gas pipeline will extend through Mongolia, and its export capacity might become more than 1.3 times higher than that of Power of Siberia. This will allow us to export large amounts of gas from Western Siberia not only westward but also eastward,” said Alexey Miller, Gazprom’s management chairman, deputy chairman of the board.
The memorandum of intent followed a December 2019 memorandum of understanding providing for a joint assessment of the feasibility of the project for pipeline gas supplies from Russia to China across Mongolia (OGJ Online, Dec. 6, 2019).
