Shot in the Northern part of Iraqi Kurdistan, close to ISIS-controlled areas, this film takes viewers to a largely unknown archeological site captured on film for the first time. The traces of hidden royal cities, extensive water management systems, and 3000-year-old reliefs and architecture are brought into the light, using specially shot drone footage, secret satellite imagery, high-end 3D visualization, and animated sequences. These new findings saved from destruction trigger a whole new understanding of this region, known as the Cradle of Civilization.
