Synopsis:
Two eccentric con artists, Tulio and Miguel, are
shooting craps in the sun-squelched streets of
16th-century Spain when they win a sacred map charting the
way to El Dorado, the lost City of Gold, and see it as
their ticket both to adventure and an enormous fortune.
With the map in hand, they stow away on the ship of evil
Spanish leader Cortez, bound for Cuba. By chance, the two
men are thrown off course and find themselves in a lush
and vibrant rainforest replete with exotic animals, hidden
waterfalls, and traces of an Indian civilization.
Stumbling upon the gate to El Dorado, Tulio and Miguel are
thought to be gods by a group of Mayan natives, and they
are led into the heart of the city for a special welcoming
ceremony. There they meet the adorable Chel, a con artist
herself, who practically bests them at their own tricks.
In the end, the two friends must choose whether they will
stay and enjoy life in the magical city of El Dorado or
make off with the gold and return to Western culture as
rich men. |
