The film
On the outskirts of Cairo, the Great Pyramid of Khufu has fascinated the world for 4,500 years. As the only one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World still standing, it has perfectly fulfilled its mission: neither the pharaoh’s mummy nor his treasure has ever been discovered. Yet, the kings of Egypt were buried with colossal riches, as evidenced by the treasure of Tutankhamun, one of the few to have reached us. So, where is Khufu’s treasure hidden, and what secrets does his pyramid still hold? From the pyramids of Giza to the most stunning remains along the Nile, this film conducts a broad-audience investigation into the secrets of pharaonic treasures.
