NFB SHORT A DAY #5: one grizzled prospector's tireless search for a fabled lost goldmine "where few men go, with shores of death, the valley where skeletons have no skulls". (No wonder: you end up yanking teeth from your scorbutic gums just trying to get there.) Gorgeous photography and a nice proto-Herzogian vibe. Music's a little much.
