Finding Atlantis follows a team of Spanish, American and Canadian scientists as they employ NASA space photography, ground penetrating radar, underwater archaeology, and historical sleuthing in an effort to find a lost civilization.

Using Plato’s detailed account of the mysterious city as a treasure map, Finding Atlantis searches the Mediterranean and Atlantic for the best possible location for Atlantis. It then employs state-of-the-art computer graphics to literally reconstruct the lost world.
