- Synopsis:
The culture of Egypt and Its Pharaohs remains an enduring fascination for many people, and it is this ancient civilization, above all others, that was perhaps the greatest of them all. Featuring extensive footage shot on location in Egypt these two films explore the incredible story of Ancient Egypt and it's mighty rulers for over 3000 years - including Hatshepsut, the Pharaoh Queen; Ramses II; Arkhenaten; and of course, the boy-king Tutankhamen. In the burning sands of the desert watch also as computer graphics "rebuild" the Sphinx and the Pyramids to show how they would have appeared thousands of years ago. Featuring expert commentary from the noted Egyptologist and archaeologist Peter Clayton, who masterfully separates fact from fiction; and interviews with Zawi Hawass, Head of the Giza Pyramid site, these films will enthrall and inform.
