Personality assessment

In the film circle of China, director Sef is recognized as the most capable director in shooting scenes of grassland wars (Sohu Entertainment Review). He is a very persistent filmmaker. When filming the historical war film Sad Stream, there was a scene where the hero and his horse fell from a cliff hundreds of meters high. Because of limited funds, I couldn't find body double, and the director Sef actually put himself into the experiment (Merris comments).

Saif, a director from Inner Mongolia Grassland, is good at shooting films with ethnic minority humanistic customs, creating immortal images of many national heroes for the world, and also showing the unique charm of China films to the world cinemas. His films are not only grand war scenes, but also beautiful iron bones and soft hearts on horseback. His films are full of passion (Tencent Entertainment Review).
