See the films the platforms disagree about most →A down-on-his-luck English archaeologist in 1980s Italy survives by using his mystical intuition to lead a rag-tag group of tomb raiders to Etruscan artifacts. He is haunted by the memory of a lost love and is drawn into the world of the "tombaroli," navigating the line between the living and the dead, the past and the present, in his search for a way back to her.
