THE MAYAN PEOPLE:
PAST AND PRESENT
Year of production: 2012
A descendant of the Mayans, Don Gonzalez will soon be 100 years
old. To this day, he remembers when a mudslide from the neighbouring
mountains left a fragment of an ancient obelisk in his cornfield – a relic of
the mysterious Mayan civilization. The ancient Mayans created a unique
system of government, developed their own writing system, and built
palaces and temples whose designs bore witness to an advanced level
of engineering. What brought about the sudden collapse of the Mayan
civilization? And what does the future hold for their descendants who
live in the Yucatan today? To answer these questions, we leave Don
Gonzalez’s hospitable home and set out on a journey into the jungle,
heading down the sacbe road – the Maya’s sacred ‘white path’ –
in pursuit of the sun and the mythical feathered serpent...

THE GOLD OF THE INCAS
Year of production: 2011
In 1925, six Jesuits set out in search of Incan treasure. All but
one disappeared. Relaying the news that they had indeed found
a city of gold, the priest, fearing the anger of the local gods, could
not disclose its location. Many have wondered whether this same
Incan gold is stored in the Vatican or worse, in a Swiss vault
under the name “Adolph Hitler”.

Year of production: 2009
Who will be the first to actually find Noah's Ark? The mystical ship
from the Bible has been photographed and videotaped from the
skies above Mount Ararat. If this is true then why have so many
climbed the great mountain but none have found the ship itself?

MYSTIC
PREDECESSORS
Year of production: 2011
Archeologists have recently
discovered an old burial vault in
Mexico. The gold figurines of exotic
birds found there have delta wings
and vertical tail fins, looking exactly
like fighter aircraft... In Egypt,
among the samples of ancient
rock art, the detailed drawing of
a helicopter is discovered – with
two rotors, just like modern ones…
What do the discovered artifact
mean? Modern experts cannot
explain these facts in the terms
of conventional science. Ancient
myths tell us that the Egyptian
pharaohs used to fly in the air on
disks… The famous King David
destroyed hundreds of his enemies
using a special “lightning” sword…
Historians have put forward a
new idea: at one time a more
advanced civilization prospered on
our planet! Maybe, it even came
to the Earth from outer space. Do
the discovered data confirm such a
new version of history?
