The summary

Whereas they decided to camp in Italy, Serge persuades the brothers Forestier, Xolotl and Thibaut to return visit to a friend of his father, professor Lorenzo. That falls rather well, since the professor proposes to them to lodge them at the time when a terrible storm falls down on the area.

But when the lightning strikes the house, Serge and Xolotl disappear purely and simply, without leaving of trace. While their companions and the professor in vain seek them through the house, and the surrounding countryside, two young people are raised in open country. And when the sun rises finally, they discover the close Roman way in perfect state - and a Roman legion one cannot credible any more who advances through the plain.

It is not a film which one makes, but well a new reality, and the two teenagers from now on will have to survive at the time of ancient Rome, without any hope of return.
