Nefertiti: Resurrected(2003)

Have they found the ancient world's greatest beauty?

Nefertiti: Resurrected is a documentary that investigates one of Egyptology's greatest mysteries: whether the legendary Queen Nefertiti has been discovered in a hidden chamber within the Valley of the Kings. Led by Dr. Joann Fletcher and her team of international scientists from the University of York Mummy Research Team, the expedition draws on thirteen years of research to uncover the truth about Egypt's most enigmatic royal figure. As the Great Royal Wife of the heretic pharaoh Akhenaten, Nefertiti was a mother of six who spearheaded a religious revolution that transformed ancient Egypt. After her death, her enemies systematically erased her from history. Using cutting-edge computer animation, X-ray analysis, and forensic reconstruction, Fletcher and her colleagues bring Nefertiti's turbulent reign into focus, revealing the temples she inhabited and the secrets her remains may hold. A discovery here would rival the unearthing of Tutankhamen nearly a century earlier.
