The Royal Hunt of the Sun (1969)

Description

Driven by desire to find the mythical Kingdom Of Gold, conquistador Francisco Pizarro (Robert Shaw) sets sail for the Americas seeking riches beyond any man's dreams. Far from being a land of savages, Pizarro encounters the magical Inca Empire and their fabled leader Atahualpa (Christopher Plummer). The initial mistrust and suspicion between the two men is replaced by a mutual faith and respect - emotions not held by other members of Pizarro's exploration party, who are purely intent on claiming the Inca gold for themselves. Empires collide in this epic story as two civilisations, two men and two belief systems seek to find their place in a modern world.
