Español Una joven arqueóloga (Lesley-Anne Down) que está pasando unas vacaciones en El Cairo presencia un asesinato en una tienda de antigüedades y, al mismo tiempo, ve cómo los asesinos roban una estatua de gran valor. Llega a la conclusión de que alguien está saqueando una tumba, cuya existencia nadie conoce, y decide encontrarla por sus propios medios.
Magyar Erica (Lesley-Anne Down), az ifjú és gyönyörű egyiptológusnő egy elfeledett óegyiptomi építész, Menephta művészetét kutatva érkezik a mai Kairóba, remélve, hogy a helyszínen rendkívüli dolgokra bukkan. Egy eldugott boltban az öreg kereskedő csodálatos aranyszobrot mutat neki, ám az idős férfit hamarosan meggyilkolják, s ezzel veszélyes és titokzatos események sora veszi kezdetét.
Français Une étudiante en égyptologie, Erica Baron, se rend en Egypte pour travailler sur sa thèse. Elle a choisi un architecte : Menephta et ses réalisations comme sujet de thèse. Au cours de ses recherches, elle découvre que des pièces antiques font l'objet de trafic et elle est témoin du meurtre de l'un des trafiquants, marchand d'antiquités. Il a cependant le temps de lui montrer une magnifique statue qui la conduit sur la piste du tombeau perdu du pharaon Seti 1er. Elle se jette dans l'aventure de la chasse au trésor mais ce n'est bien évidemment pas sans danger.
Deutsch Die Harvard-Absolventin Erica Baron (Lesley-Anne Down) sucht das Grab des Pharao Seti. Gleich nach ihrer Ankunft in Kairo beobachtet die Archäologin den Mord an Antiquitätenhändler Hamdi (John Gielgud). Fortan umschleichen dunkle Gestalten die Ahnungslose. Als Erica mit Hilfe einer alten Papyrusrolle tatsächlich fündig wird, gerät sie ins Kreuzfeuer verfeindeter Grabräuberbanden. Und selbst der tote Pharao im Sarg scheint ihr zu grollen… Regisseur Franklin J. Schaffner ("Papillon") ließ die Gruselmär mit musealen Grabreliquien ausstatten der Spannung nützt es freilich nicht.
Pусский Путешествия в Долину Фараонов оборачивается для египтолога Эрики гораздо большим, чем она предполагала, — убийством, предательством, любовью и древним проклятием мумии.
Italiano Un'archeologa riesce, dopo lunghe ricerche, a scoprire il classico segreto di una tomba egizia. Naturalmente la sua attività attira l'attenzione dei saccheggiatori che intervengono con la loro avidità. La situazione si surriscalda, ma la sorte è in agguato per tutti.

Erika, wspólnie z francuskim dziennikarzem i koneserem sztuki Yvon de Margeau oraz członkiem rządu egipskiego, znawcą sztuki egipskiej Akmedem Khazzanem, podejrzewa, że skradziony posąg to tylko część skarbu

Old Nazi hunter, Ezra Lieberman (Laurence Olivier in an Academy Award-nominated performance), is at first uninterested in Kohler's findings. But when he is told something of their plan, he is eager to find out more. Lieberman visits several homes in Europe and the U. S. in order to uncover the Nazi plot. It is at one of these houses he notices something strange, which turns out to be a horrible discovery. THE BOYS FROM BRAZIL was nominated for three Academy Awards.

There's no mistaking the grand voice, the outsized personality, the friendly, open face. Stepping outside his traditional operatic canon to star in his only feature film is renowned tenor Luciano Pavarotti. Not that the "King of the High Cs" steps too far outside with this breezy tale of romance. Nor would fans want things any other way. The role of an opera star touring the U.S. provides an ample showcase for Pavarotti's rich vocal artistry in works including Ave Maria, La Donna È Mobile, his signature Nessun Dorma, even I Left My Heart in San Francisco. Franklin J. Schaffner (Patton) directs, with locations including Italy, Boston, New York and the Napa Valley. Bravo, Giorgio! Bravissimo, Luciano!

Where myth and history meet--where good vanquishes evil--the heart of a lion beats in the body of a child in this brave and wondrous tale of long ago.
