The Lost City of Z

Born in 1867, Percy Fawcett was an archaeologist and a Colonel in the Royal Artillery who became convinced, during a series of mapping expeditions to the Amazon, that somewhere in the jungle was a city of gold and maize – so ancient it perhaps predated western civilisation itself.

The film tells the incredible, true story of his obsession and is as transporting, profound and staggering in it’s emotional power as anything seen in the cinema in years.
