This film illustrates the rise, fall and resurrection of ancient Butrint–a Mediterranean city uncovered through the pioneering excavations of archaeologists in Albania. In the process, we get a vivid example of how, by uncovering lost antiquities in this former Soviet-bloc country, archaeology is instrumental in bringing tourism and an economic future to this newly-independent nation.
