Шаблон:Infobox film Amka and The Three Golden Rules is a 2014 Mongolian-American family comedy/drama written and directed by Babar Ahmed.[1]

The film was highlighted in the World Development Report 2017 as an example of how policy making is a "result of a bargaining process among actors, who frequently have diverse and even opposing preferences and interests."[2]

Plot

Amka is a ten year old Mongolian boy. His biggest dream is to play soccer with the neighborhood kids but they only make fun of his poor clothes. One day Amka discovers a gold coin. With this new found wealth he buys fancy clothes and now the other kids let him play soccer with them. He is soon introduced to video games and he starts to get addicted. Amka's taste for money starts to take over his personality. He loses respect for his family and starts borrowing money from the other kids. Very soon he is over his head in debt. The neighborhood kids have had enough and chase Amka to get their money back. Amka escapes to the countryside where he meets his eccentric uncle. The uncle teaches Amka three golden rules in life.[1]

Reception

The UB Post highlighted the allegory in the story to Mongolia's current predicament of facing modernization and its discovery of natural resources. The newspaper wrote that the movie is 'Brilliantly crafted' and went on to say that 'combined with a strong lead, stunning shots of the spectacular landscapes of Mongolia and excellent music... the story is in many ways a symbol of how Mongolia must decide its own fate'.[14]
