Good flick! It does seem to have some basis in historical fact. Props like costuming and hairstyles seem to be pretty accurate when compared against the mummies found in the Tarim Basin of China and art found on Scythian artifacts, so the film maker appear to have put some effort into historical accuracy.
China has apparently banned Western scientists from doing research on the Tarim mummies due to sensitive (to the CCP) political issues - the Tarim people appear to have been European, but being found on (currently) Chinese territory, I reckon they must want to preclude any political claims (particularly Uyghir) other than Chinese to the area.

Diogenes was eating bread and lentils for supper. He was seen by the philosopher Aristippus, who lived comfortably by flattering the king.
Said Aristippus, ‘If you would learn to be subservient to the king you would not have to live on lentils.’ Said Diogenes, ‘Learn to live on lentils and you will not have to be subservient to the king.’
