Last Call for Nefertiti

An intimate story in search of the tomb of ancient Egypt's most beautiful woman, told through history, performance and song.

Presented by: English Cabaret | with C ARTS

From an English country castle, where the quest began, to the heat of Luxor, where dreams of a dig were realised, this film is a personal impression of one man in pursuit of the find of his life. Interviews and eye-witness material from four seasons in the Valley of the Kings are threaded with cabaret interludes from Sue Casson and the Brannick Academy.
