Hace 4.500 años las arenas del desierto egipcio fueron testigo de una de las proezas más asombrosas de las historia de la humanidad: la construcción de las pirámides Keops, Kefren y Micerino, gigantescos templos funerarios en la meseta de Gizeh, levantados en honor de aquellos faraones. National Geografhic y un equipo de arqueólogos han explorado algunos de los secretos mejor guardados de aquel periodo, como el procedimiento que se seguía para erigir semejantes monumentos en aquella época o el método empleado por los embalsamadores para momificar los cuerpos. Las cámaras le conducirán también al recinto en que se descubrió la misteriosa embarcación del faraón Keops, el suntuoso navío que debía conducirlo a la eternidad.

A group of Black soldiers are home from the war and head to a small Southern town. The town is dominated by a group of Klansmen who keep the Black majority from voting or being treated like human beings. However, these newcomers convince the local population to register to vote so they can take back power and achieve justice. When hundreds show up to register, the Klan responds with violence. Eventually, though, the Black community has little choice other than fight back and the film ends with a small war between these combat vets and the Klan.
