Synopsis

Period action film. Sequel (though set earlier) to 'Raiders of the Lost Ark'. After narrowly escaping from a deadly business deal-gone-wrong in a Shanghai nightclub, archaeologist Indiana Jones is asked by the leader of an Indian village to retrieve a sacred, magical stone which has been stolen, and with it all the children in the village have disappeared. Accompanied by glamorous nightclub singer Willie Scott and by his young Chinese friend Short Round, Indy journeys by elephant to Pankot Palace, underneath which he discovers a temple of the murderous Thugee cult. There too is a mine full of enslaved children whom he duly attempts to free.
