Synopsis:

Desmond Jordan is an archaeologist who find an old parchment in where is mentioned the history of the Loudspeaker Mountain, the guardian of an ancient and sought-after treasure hidden in someplace of Sahara's desert. After to save Anthea, Khalif's wife, the two run away of evil Lieutenant Ryker and his legionaries and El Hallem, a dangerous and infamous bandit of the desert. At the same time that Khalif order to his guards recover to his wife Philip, Jordan's son, travels from London to Egypt looking for his father to help him to discover the location of the Loudspeaker Mountain, trying to reveal the mystery that it hides.

The story is original, the location (and sets) are breath taking and the cast is first class, with outstanding performances from Michael York as the obsessive archaeologist Desmond Jordan and Ben Kingsley as Sholomon, the Polish Jew who has found peace in the desert. David Soul provides a real sense of menace as Lieutenant Ryker and steals almost every scene from his co-stars. The director Alberto Negrin keeps the story moving along at a brisk pace, aided by a hauntingly beautiful musical score from Ennio Morricone.
