An exceptional adventure in the Sahara desert, 28 February 2001
10/10
Author: Vel (ristic@idirect.com) from Toronto, Canada

This film is a combination of a subtle adventure and love, mystery and revenge and abandonment in the unforgiving Sahara desert.The mystery queen Antinea, of the lost Atlantis, has a penchant for embalming her lovers and using them as ornamental statues in her gallery, until finally, she met a lover who could resist her charms. It is a real pity that this movie is not available on VHS or DVD.
