Lupin appears to swipe the tablet, but he leaves empty-handed... and as a murder suspect! He shrugs off being framed for the death of an archaeology professor just enough to go treasure-hunting. Tailed by both a weapons dealer and ICPO Inspector Zenigata, Lupin must rely on his gunslinging partner Jigen and the professor's granddaughter Lisa to stay two steps ahead. Meanwhile, the swordsman Goemon rethinks his devotion to the blade and finds romance deep in the mountains. Two tales collide in a worldwide adventure packed with history and laughs!

Man Versus Man

Jan 1, 1981

Man-pulled rickshaw, which have served Kolkata for over eight decades face virtual extinction as a result of legislation introduced by the State Government in 1981. This would rob over 100,000 people of a living. The film analyzes the critical situation, and on the basis of concrete facts and figures, questions whether such a step would be fruitful at all. The image of a man pulling a man is a depressing and a negative one - but not more negative than that of the image of a man going without food.

This Exists - A Film about Sri Prem Baba

Nov 9, 2015

The story of Sri Prem Baba, spiritual master and humanitarian leader with followers around the world, begins when a 14-year-old from Sao Paulo, Brazil, had a vision that said: 'go to Rishikeshi, India'.

Fascinating India

May 15, 2014

"Fascinating India" spreads an impressive panorama of India’s historical and contemporary world. The film presents the most important cities, royal residences and temple precincts. It follows the trail of different religious denominations, which have influenced India up to the present day. Simon Busch and Alexander Sass travelled for months through the north of the Indian subcontinent to discover what is hidden under India’s exotic and enigmatic surface, and to show what is rarely revealed to foreigners. The film deals with daily life in India. In Varanasi, people burn their dead to ashes. At the Kumbh Mela, the biggest religious gathering of the world, 35 million pilgrims bathe in holy River Ganges. This is the first time India is presented in such an alluring and engaging fashion on screen.
