Benjamin Franklin Gates archeológus - családja hét korábbi generációjához hasonlóan - egy különös kincs megtalálására szenteli életét. A Gates család titkos legendája úgy tartja, hogy George Washington, Thomas Jefferson és Benjamin Franklin Amerika Függetlenségi háborúja idején egy jelentős arany-tartalékot rejtett el "szűkösebb napokra", és az arany rejtekhelyéhez az Alkotmány, valamint a Függetlenségi Nyilatkozat eredeti példányaiban található titkos utalások vezetnek el. Gates-nek nincs semmilyen kézzelfogható bizonyítéka arra, hogy a legendának bármilyen valóságalapja lenne, mégis teljes erőbedobással fog hozzá a titkos kód feltöréséhez és a kincs megtalálásához. Hamarosan azonban mások is értesülnek a kincsről, és megindul a hajtóvadászat.

The raising of King Henry VIII’s flagship Mary Rose in 1982 remains one of the most significant events in the history of maritime salvage. Comparable to the recovery of the 17th century Swedish warship Vasa in 1961, the climax of this complex and expensive operation was watched by around 60 million people worldwide. But 300 reels of film recently found in the archive of The Mary Rose Trust provide additional insight into the operation.

A sound is heard from the depth of the soil as the archeological exploration of the Shahre Sukhte goes on. While following the archeologists to document the explorations, the film in parallel seeks out the sound coming from the depths of the soil and steps deep in history to accompany the ancient citizens of the city. The film depicts the wonderful city of “Shahre Sukhte” (The Burnt City) in Zabol in Iran, which was home to one of the highest civilizations at the dawn of history lasting for over 1400 years. In this city was no central government or leadership in Shahr-e-Sukhte. The government was administered by a group that was matriarchal, meaning that power was in the hands of women. It may be for this reason that we witness no trace of violence and war in this city. Something that the world today desperately needs.
