Black Pharaohs: Empire of Gold
Director
It's a land of pyramids, gold, and ancient treasure, but it's not Egypt. It's present-day Sudan, once home to the glorious kingdom of Kush. Now, archaeologists are using every means possible - from robots to rock climbers - in their search for clues about this long-neglected culture. Once the Kushites filled the pharaohs' coffers with gold and, for a time, they even ruled over all of Egypt, but only now is their real story beginning to emerge.

Rise of the Black Pharaohs
Writer
Around 800 BC, Kush, a little-known subject state of Egypt, rose up and conquered the Egyptians, enthroned its own Pharaohs, and ruled over the empire of King Tut for nearly 100 years. This unlikely chapter of history has been buried by the Egyptians and belittled by early archaeologists, who refused to believe that dark skinned Africans could have risen so high. But now, in the heart of Sudan, archeologists Geoff Emberling and Tim Kendall are bringing the truth about the Black Pharaohs to life.

El Evangelio Prohibido de Judas
Director
Judas ha pasado a la historia como el mayor traidor de la humanidad. De hecho en España cuando se quiere llamar a alguien traidor se le suele decir: “Eres un Judas”. La historia del traidor a Jesús ha llegado hasta nuestros días, y dos mil años después aún estamos hablando de ella. En este documental se nos da una visión distinta sobre la traición, que viene dada por el descubrimiento de nuevos textos bíblicos, en concreto del Evangelio de Judas, que cuenta una historia totalmente distinta a la que conocemos. En estos documentos antiguos, parece que se relata como Jesús fue el que ideo todo el proceso que llevó a su ejecución, probablemente para convertirse en un mártir de la Iglesia Católica y que ésta perdurara en el tiempo, como así ha sido. El documental es más que interesante, ya que nos va a dar otro punto de vista sobre la historia de Jesús, apoyado por documentos y testimonios científicos de primer orden.
Treasure Seekers: The Silk Road
Director
The Bezeklik Grottoes in the Flaming Mountains near Turfan hang precariously off a cliff above a steep gorge. However, the Buddhist carvings and murals within these caves were not sufficiently remote to escape both the onslaught of Islam and the intentions of foreign archaeologists and treasure seekers. Now there is a new threat: that of numerous coach loads of foreign and domestic tourists, keen to see what's left.

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.
