Treasure Hunters: On the Tracks of Khufu

An idiosyncratic archaeologist sets out on a surprising quest to locate King Khufu's long lost treasure, accompanied by his daughter Isis and his grandson Julien. The pursuit blends slapstick humor with moments of wonder as they chase clues through bazaars, dusty archives, and remote sites. Their trio and mentor clash at times, but their shared curiosity keeps them moving. Along the way, rival treasure hunters, cheerful locals, and clever traps test their wits and resolve. The mission becomes a test of family bonds, trust, and what counts as real wealth. The mix of laughs and light suspense keeps the tone breezy while the mystery remains warmly engaging. Isis, the daughter, offers steadiness, while Julien injects a modern spark for now.

Directed by Schulz, Turpin and Tonnerre, Treasure Hunters draws on an original screenplay. Its light touch and brisk pacing showcase chemistry among the leads, while clever production design gives energy to scenes in sunlit markets and dusty archives and wit.
