This month, Tucson Arizona International Film Festival officials should have a fun event for all the family.
SenArt Films is running a treasure hunt where attendees can download a phone application to use clues to solve various challenges, earn points, and win prizes.
Prizes include hiking equipment, gift certificates, and other merchandise.
The treasure hunt will take place on Sunday, April 18, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. The event will take place at the Mercado Festival Grounds, 267 South Avenida del Convento, Tucson. The event is free of charge.
The Treasure Hunt will help promote the new documentary, “Lust For Gold: A Race Against Time,” which follows a group of treasure hunters who band together to look for the Lost Dutchman gold mine near Apache Junction.
The film was written and directed by Robert May, who was executive producer of the 2003 Oscar-winning documentary, The Fog of War: Eleven Lessons from the Life of Robert S. McNamara. He was also the writer and director of Kids for Cash, a film about a Pennsylvania judicial scandal in which a judge was set back for sending children to private juvenile detention centers.
The film is named after “Lust for Gold”, a 1949 release by Columbia Pictures. The film is based on the book “Thunder Gods Gold” by author Barry Storm, in which the legend of the lost Dutchman and the hunt for gold have been described.
Legend has it that German-born gold prospector Jacob Waltz left a $ 200 million gold mine in the Superstition Mountains before his death in October 1891. Mr Waltz is said to have become rich in gold that he had carried out of superstition.
