In the 1936 spring an exploration party penetrates the thick jungle on the South American continent. When the group& #039; the head of s stops to examine the fragments of the program, an other of the shooting of the group a gun. The head, feeling the release like the lodgings of the voltagabbana a round one, extracts a bullwhip and disarms l' man, transmitting that he escapes behind through the jungle. Thus ago the & amp of Dr. Henry; quot; Indiana& amp; quot; Jones, stay of the Jr. (Harrison Ford) alive. Indy and its remaining companion enters in wide an unhealthy cavern and oppressively, in which a competitor of its, Forrestal, disappeared. All' inside of the cavern is several taken equipped from the ancient people that have hidden a small, important statue here — and one of the taken ones is found for having Forrestal snared. The two men find and recall the statue, but the cavern is equipped in order to sink when the statue is moved. Indy leaks to mala pain the cavern, while its companion the denunciation and is murdered test to leak. Apparently sure, Indy is set aside from the Hovitos, the local tribe, that Paul Freeman is lead from Dr. Rene Belloq (), a French archaeologist arrogating that is avails again and an enemy from long time of Indy& #039; S. Indy escapes and is saved from Jock (Fred Sorenson), piloting seaplane, however Indy isn& #039; the t it satisfied in order to find Jock& #039; Reggie snake dell' domestic animal of s all' inside. The stateside posterior, Indy teaches to a code category of archaeology and still is upsotten over the loss of the statue, than Belloq conjecture it is taking to Marrakesh; it has found that the parts think will pay a travel to Marrakesh to find Belloq, but Indy& #039; l' friend Marcus Brody (Denholm Elliott) of s precipitates that hope informing it that one two army that the civil employees dell' intelligences want to communicate with he approximately Abner Ravenwood, its former teacher, that he was its friend till that Indy is not broken in on with its daughter, Marion (Karen Allen). The army officials are interested because they& #039; the VE has intercepted a German cable care to gigantic vangata archaeological in the desert Egyptian. When they read the cable, Indy and Marcus realize that the Nazis has uncovered Tanis, an ancient city buried B.C in a gigantic powder storm in 980 and the place of possible interment dell' it arches of the pact. L' it arches has been constructed from the antichi Hebrew in order to hold reducing in stone breads on which Moses it has enrolled the ten orders. It has the immense power mystical — in order to allow enough that the Nazis levels mountains and the waste of disposition to the entire regions. Indy flies in the Nepal (followed from a nazi agent, Toht (Ronald Lacey)) for in order confronting Marion Ravenwood, than ago to work a restaurant and a bar (and that anyone) because has need of the helmet to the staff of Ra, of which crystals can outdrink will allow that it determines the exact position dell' it arches. Marion, still bitter over their decline, this although chip ax when Indy offers to its $3,000 and the promise more when they give back the stateside. It is enigmatic approximately the helmet and after that the sheets of Indy reflects it like the door around its collo. Toht and several heavies of Sherpa enter in the bar and hold l' hostage of Marion, with ready Toht to torture it for the helmet. Indy sends back and a firefight it bursts during which the fireplace is sloggiato and the construction begins to burn down. Toht finds the helmet but it seizes when it he& #039; s burnt badly — to leave un' image of a side of the helmet has marked to warmth on its hand. It leaks while Indy and Marion make similarly and fly nell' Egypt in order to see Indy& #039; pal of s, Sallah (John Rhys-Davies), that it is working to the nazi place and that reveals that the Nazis is helped from a French archaeologist (Belloq). More successively, while they acquire to a bazaar of Cairo, Indy and Marion are attacati from the Arabs dimaneggio that they work for the nazi agents. It fights them to Indy outside from but in the Marion confusion it is blocked in a great basket and is taken from two of the terrorists. The effort in order to follow it down is hindered dall' man who brandishing a way sword d' intimidazione. The swordsman it is talked nonsense down shortly l' order from the points completely impressed of Indy.Soon a Indy a basket transported to a filled up truck of explosives and is not fired over from an aggressor dimaneggio. Its nazi commander orders the Arabs to remove, but Indy shoots they and the arrests of the truck, exploding and to destroy the basket. Disconsolate over the loss of the Marion, Indy drowns its displeasures in the drink but it is met from the more nazi agents accompany who it to a table to which is put Belloq, that it speaks gleefully dell' location dell' it arches. Indy, more not preoccupantesi if it lives or dice, catches up for its sidearm like guns of shooting of the inner part of the Arabs — in order to only see Sallah& #039; the great brood of s of the children slides fast within and the & amp; quot; Arabs& amp; quot; in order to turn out to be fanti of marine of the United States, a lot all' embarrassment of Belloq.Sallah takes Indy in order to see a shaman that it is reading the helmet after that both the men have learned that Belloq and its assistant of Wehrmacht, colonel Dietrich (lupo Kahler) of the Ra, has obtained a copy of the helmet. (Not c' he is neither l' neither l' other informed man that it is a duplicate followed from Toht& #039; burnt hand s.) The shaman it reveals two critical facts us: in the first instance, that one the helmet gives l' precise height of the staff of Ra and in the second place, than the staff the Nazis used era too much along — thus their digging is over a mile beginning from the Ark& #039; the place of real interment of s, that it is known well like of Souls.Infiltrating the gigantic place, Indy is lowered in a maproom underground that just contains a detailed miniatura of the city. For means of the helmet of the Ra, it identifies the precise position well of of the spirit. Rubacchiando more ulteriorly around all' gigantic encampment, Indy is shaken in order to find alive but sewn Marion, and is imbavagliato. Indy begins to free it, but when he reveals that the Nazis continu to aare to ask news on he and what knows, realizes it can& #039; the t he has cut its loosened without to reveal its presence to the Nazis.Late that the afternoon Indy and Sallah rubacchia a party of excavation of theirs own to the real position of the good of the spirit. Behind schedule in the night they dig opened l' lodging and to Indy& #039; horror of s is filled up of dangerous snakes. Indy eliminates a zone of the snakes with the torchs burning, therefore it is lowered nell' lodging and burns many of the alive snakes with burning benzine. Sallah follows and the two finally find that the case gigantic that is l' it by now arches is l' dawn and only now ago l' warning of Belloq the confusion a mile of distance. The Nazis encircles the place and Indy is left blocked all' inside, but it leaves it Dietrich with the qualcos' other — Marion, that it is jetty nell' lodging and in the zone sluices outside. Famous Indy a wall in which the snakes they are entering. A gigantic statue scrambles up and with all its it from the relative foundation could breaches and it is arrested through the wall. Ritrovamento two un' opening to the surface and discovers l' aerodrome all' encampment of the digging, in which there is a nazi cargo plane bizzarro. Spione two until all' airplane, but Indy is attacato from a mechanic and a extended fight follows that it joins from a Nazi corpulento that pummels Indy before the perforation behind and being chipped to the tips from the plane& #039; propellers of s. Marion grippa one of the plane& #039; the machine-guns of s and open the fire on the nazi soldiers, in the dealt regulation a warehouse of the fuel aflame. L' fire destroys the zone and l' airplane explodes, but Indy and Marion leak. Dietrich orders its men to transport l' it arches in truck to Cairo. When Sallah finds Indy and Marion, it is they& #039 overjoyed; alive king and says they of Dietrich& #039; program of s. Indy takes a horse and pursues the convoy, grippante the truck that contains l' it arches and that it survives to a brutal pursuit and a fight with the nazi soldiers in order to guide l' it arches to the emergency. Edge of Marion and he a ship that takes l' it arches of new to the United States, but a nazi submarine blocks the ship. L' it arches is taken to edge of the submarine and the taken prisoner Marion for Belloq. Indy, however, leaks l' nazi pursuit and guides the submarine while it is annoying on the surface dell' the ocean to un' island in which Belloq and the Nazis trek to the advanced part of a mountain. Indy has seized a rocket launcher and intercepts Belloq, making ballot to make to burst l' it arches less than Marion it was freed. But Belloq calls Indy& #039; the bluff of s, knowing Indy wants to know what l' anyone arches contains as well as how much. It finds it to Indy can& #039; the t it carries out its threat and it is grippata. To a ceremony elaborated in top to the mountain Indy and Marion, legacies to a pole, can only watch while l' it arches is opened, but the sand, the rests of reducing in stone breads does not contain nothing but. More soon it will not be has been opened, however, than relative the alcoholic ones they appear without warning. Indy and Marion, remembering an ancient code that people demand to close their eyes and not to examine the alcoholic ones now-freed, support the permanent lesion that follows while l
