Prisoners of the Sun

SUBTITLES BY HISAMI.

A long time ago, when mankind was still in its cradle,

visitors came from the sky. They were called the Osiris.

These gods gave us unimaginable gifts.

The lights of which we had never dreamed of before.

Astronomy, architecture, culture.

But all these came at a price.

The Osiris wanted earth for themselves.

The Pharaoh, the greatest man of all, together with the God of Sunlight Ra

opposed this threat to their people.

Just when the visitors prepared to summon their kin to come to Earth

an opportunity arising only once every 5000 years,

when the stars align in the right order

the Pharaoh stole the light from the Osiris, blinding them with its brilliance,

leaving them in prison, in a dungeon

hidden in the labyrinth below his pyramid.

But some still believed in the visitors way

and prepared for the time of their return. So did the Princess Amanphur.

Take the baby and run from here. He is the last of the bloodline.

Give thanks to the Gods.

The worship of Osiris will be buried with her.

Praise for her journey to the next world.

She will be laid to rest in the glory of Ra.

Without the Pharaoh's knowledge, very deep below the princess's

pyramid grave, a gate was constructed...

When the stars align once more...

the visitors would again be welcomed by a descendant of the Princess's bloodline...

But the Pharaoh mistrusted his princess even in death.

So he made a key. The Key of Heaven

to lock in tightly whatever secrets she may have kept from him.

A guardian was created to protect the tomb.

And he made sure that no one would tell the secrets of the tomb buildings

so that Osiris could never return.

But if they did, their revenge would be terrible.

A rain of fire would scorch the Earth and every man, woman and child would die.

Only loyal servants of the Osiris would be rewarded and turned into Gods themselves.

The stars are approaching their alignment.

But the Key of Heaven has been lost, the bloodline seems to have vanished,

until now.

You're late. It is the traffic again, huh?

Oh, what can I say, it was horrible.

But you look beautiful!

I'm sweating and I'm dusty. Too many hours playing Tomb Raider, Mr. Adler...

- Where is he? - In the tent.

Take a look at this before you go see him...

Beautiful!

You are amazing!

Against the risks...

7 days.

They built these pyramids to mirror exactly what they saw in the heavens...

That mirror image only reappeared once every 5000 years...

In seven days time, the image will be complete again.

I checked again last night with Mendella. They found nothing.

Tell him to widen the search area.

Tell him money is now no object.

We're running out of time.

We're late for Khalfani.

Oh, got to get on dealing with that thieving goat...

Get the driver.

Yep, Masterton here. No, that's not what I wanted.

I want it tomorrow. Not to next week not next month. Tomorrow!

Masterton has confirmed the date. Exactly in one week.

We have to find the entrance.

You know the tombs, right? I do not understand why we can't locate it.

It's here. It has to be.

We need to extend the dig. You organise the lights so we can work through the night.

They're being delivered today. The bad news is, there is a storm coming in.

- Oh great. - Let's go inside.

You look tired, Professor. Have you eaten today?

Too hot.

- You got it... - You do not want to know how.

Why are museum staff so damn stuffy?

Living with relics. Our people will start looking like their dogs...

This is strange.

Now you tell me that is not a visiting ship of some kind?

It could be the symbol of a flying god.

You know, Egypt changed so fast at this time that

no man's aware that is a great civilization.

No chance for us alright...

Like today. Just like today, cynics will regard you as a bit of a crank.

Why, I'm as cynical as the best of them. I'm telling you something strange went on here.

Are you looking for anything in particular?

The Key of Heaven.

That's very particular.

You have it, I want it. We do business?

You understand however, another interested party willing to pay handsomely.

So tonight, the item would want the most serious offer...

I am a most serious man.

And you would be?

Mr. Levitz, come with me. I trust no one followed you here.

Nobody got anywhere near me.

Do you know the legend of the Key of Heaven?

Yes, it was handed down since Egyptian times by a sect of priests, until it went missing.

Lost. Lost, Mr. Levitz in the midst of time.

Rumoured to be linked to the mysterious Princess Amanphur.

How do I know it's genuine?

How do I know you can afford such a treasure?

Ah, masterpieces, sculpture. A miracle of survival.

You know that Hitler once sent archaeologists here to search it,

but it remained hidden until now.

These are the Carbon testing results.

That he invite you, it is priceless, Mr. Levitz?

- What about you? - Let me see it first.

Well worth double the price. I'm sure you'll agree.

I had in mind a trade.

This fine stick... 19th century.

You must be joking.

I rarely joke. I am a most serious man.

Mr Khalfani?

Oh, Jesus!

Masterton

- I understand you seek a certain key. - Levitz?

- Well, it just changed hands. - You murdering bastard.

Do tell me where you are. I'm not going to call the police and have you arrested.

On the way. Should be with you any minute.

That beautiful walking stick that killed him is yours.

It has your fingerprints all over it.

Well, motivation is clearly proven, Professor.

Fine. What do you want? Money?

Money? How undignified. I want participation.

Or your walking stick goes to the police with a witness.

You won't get away with this.

What do we do?

Claire, I need your advice.

You're gonna have to leave. The storm is coming.

Well, keep going!

We can predict a storm. No, not this one. The big one is coming. Look for yourself!

We'll take everything down. I'll give you a hand!

OK, let's go!

Oh, for God's sake!

Stay in the car.

Someone around you just died?

This follow the things I came to talk to you about.

This storm is not an accident.

The secret is revealed.

You were given something.

A key.

You will complete your mission in the next days.

A great bird Sophus... Swimmer in the blood of men...

There's fire.

- There's fire. It will be again. - What is it, Claire?

The signs of Osiris risen... The signs of Osiris dead...

- I must know. - No!

Claire, what is it? I need to know.

Nothing. Just a bad dream.

I leave you now. You've been very helpful.

Yes, of course, I told him. On his way now. Yes.

What does he mean?

Professor Mendella insists you see for yourself.

Very well then. Let us see for ourselves.

- What is it this time? - Not expect you to believe?

What have you got for me?

Look what the storm uncovered.

We thought it was all over.

I knew it.

Old friend, can you find the entrance for me?

My dear man, we have already started.

Assemble the rest of the team. Call Sarah, in London.

Tell her, her father needs her.

Masterton! Professor Mendella is exhausted. You can see for yourself.

He hasn't slept in weeks.

Can we delay it? He needs to rest.

Dr. Adler! That pyramid is an Astronomical Observatory

dedicated to a celestial event that occurs once every 5000 years.

The next occurrence is at 12:37, on Thursday, the 12th of this month.

Three days. Three days Dr. Adler.

I will be inside that pyramid in three days!

Have a look at it. I've deciphered what I can.

Some panels damaged, some missing.

Are you alright? Time to get you home.

- Got to prepare for tomorrow - We'll pack it in for tonight.

I really do not feel so good.

Maybe I can persuade Masterton to delay a few days...

It would be preferable, but he's calculated his timing from his astrological studies.

He won't change.

All right.

- Good night. - Good night.

Your client is here.

Went to see the new pyramid?

Amazing, isn't it?

Do you watch me clap as well?

Ah my friend, this is a mysterious country. Oh, you should know that...

You married a beautiful Egyptian woman. People have a habit of disappearing.

- I'm just protecting my investment. - And what would that investment be?

Ici...

Au revoir.

The Key of Heaven. Without it, you can't enter the tomb.

I too have been researching the legend of the Sun God for some years now...

I will buy it off. You name your price.

I have money up front. I don't need that Masterton.

If the legend is true, this pyramid being exposed would seem to confirm things.

There are riches beyond belief buried in there.

This is my mission.

Well, I'm coming with you, whether you like it or not.

I am following an explicit set of instructions

that were laid down over 5000 years ago.

- There is no place for you in... - There is now.

The walking stick with your fingerprints all over it

is approaching the police station as we speak.

Now, if I don't call my man in a... let's see.. three minutes...
