The Treasure of the Sierra Nevada (2009)
This story, based on factual events, is set in 2005.  Los Angeles has just set a record as their wettest rainfall season since 1877. Finally, on a clear day, two best friends, Glen and Antonio, who have been suffering from cabin fever, decide to embark on 'a guys day out' hiking trip into the mountains. Due to the massive amounts of erosion caused by the rains, they stumble across a great treasure on their adventure. Suddenly their friendship is tested in this highly original, modern day "film-noir" set in the beautiful backdrop of California's Sierra Nevada Mountains.
