Ancient Explorers

Mark and Luis are best friends who grew up together listening to Mark's grandfather tell stories about his adventures and big hidden treasures. As they grew up and became more responsible, they forgot about these stories. In their adulthood, Mark and Luis opened an antique store together with items that Grandpa had collected over the years. After a few years, the business went into bankruptcy. The night they finished packing the items from the store, they went to a local bar to drink away their frustrations. In the bar, Mark and Luis met two beautiful ladies, Sandy and Jennifer. As the guys tried to flirt with the ladies, Jennifer and Sandy became interested in Mark's compass. The compass had belonged to Mark's grandfather. He had received when his grandfather passed away, when Mark was still a kid. As the ladies reviewed the compass and the ancient symbols on it, they asked to see more of what Luis and Mark had in their store. They were very intrigued about what the compass symbols would reveal. As the four looked at the items that had been boxed up in the store, Mark revealed that he still possessed a treasure map that he and Luis received from Grandpa when they were kids; a treasure map that had the same ancient symbols as the compass. Jennifer and Sandy explained that they believed the map and compass were real and from the fourteenth century A.D. They also revealed that they were archaeologists, so they knew what they were talking about. As they kept studying the map, it revealed something unimaginable: Paititi, the lost city of Peru, a city that had many hidden treasures and riches. The guys were impressed with the girls and their findings. As they discovered this, something put their lives in danger, a danger that drives these adventurous guys to follow what they were meant to do in life - to become what Mark's Grandpa taught them when they were kids: explorers of the ancients. It is then when Luis, Mark, Jennifer, and Sandy begin their journey into the unknown, a magical and adventurous journey to discover the lost city of Peru, a journey that will change their lives forever.
