[ Story ]
This documentary tackles the riddle of the gigantic line drawings discovered in the Nazca desert in South America near the Pacific Ocean coast in 1939 by the American archeologist Paul Kosok. The film has made a splash at archeological film festivals throughout the world, and won the Grand Prize at the 21st International Festival of Archeological Film, held in Italy. The ancient people of Nazca are said to have begun drawing the geoglyphs from around 1AD. However, the purpose of the pictures has not been clarified in the slightest. This film delves into the mystery through the surveys and excavations that continue today.
