This US-Iranian coproduction tells of a gang of thieves who, after failing to steal the crown jewels of Tehran, flee in the direction of another adventure. They roll into a village continually raided by bandits and badly in need of protection. They offer their protection to the townspeople
and inhabitant Sommer, who is determined to get her hands on a hidden treasure. One gang member is kidnaped during a raid, and the thieves retaliate by burning the bandit village to the ground. In the midst of all this destruction, Sommer's treasure map is destroyed, prompting her to join the
thieves on yet another adventure. Rudolf Nureyev (yes, the dancer) served as choreograph...
