Following archeologist Mustafa Sahin’s discovery, this film retraces the unprecedented underwater excavation supposed to unravel the mysteries surrounding an 1,600-year-old church found in 2014, in Turkey lake Iznik.

Thanks to an exclusive access to the site, aerial and underwater footage, CGI and key experts specialized in religious buildings, spanning Turkey, France, Switzerland, the United States and the Vatican, this investigation will delve into the remains of this underwater basilica, and take us on a unique journey back to the fourth century AD, and the foundation of Christianity itself.
