  Genghis Khan - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Genghis was related through his father to Qabul Khan, Ambaghai and Qutula Khan who had headed the Mongol confederation under Jin patronage until the Jin switched their support to the Tatars in 1161 and destroyed Qutula Khan.
Genghis' father, Yesugei, khan of the Borjigin, and nephew to Ambaghai and Qutula Khan, emerged as the head of the ruling clan of the Mongols, but this position was contested by the rival Tayichi’ud clan, which descended directly from Ambaghai.

 Science News: Genghis Khan's legacy? The Mongol warlord may have left his imprint on the world's DNA
Even more provocatively, the researchers suggest that Genghis Khan himself had this particular version of the Y. Unlike other chromosomes, the Y exchanges little DNA with its partner, the X chromosome, when the sperm's DNA joins with the eggs.
If this version of the Y chromosome was present in a significant percentage of his army, it could quickly have increased its distribution as the Mongols expanded their empire.
Genghis Khans habit of slaying people he conquered, especially males, would have helped this form of the Y chromosome displace others.

The story of this movie takes place in the middle ages at a time when Genghis Khan's Mongolian army was threatening Europe.
But I am quite sure that ordinary Polish women in the middle ages did not possess a hairstyle, makeup, and manicure like models in the early 1960's, especially if they were hiding from the Mongolian army in the marshland.
This having been said, it is almost unnecessary to mention that even the main story line is far from telling a true story about Genghis Khan's time.
