★ 9.4 · 1995 · 55m · Documentary · History · Comedy
What is the connection between the bloody gang war that once raged over control of the Chicago fish market, the decades of terror perpetrated by the Chinese, Russian, and Italian mafias, the secret operations of the CIA and the KGB, the Cuban revolution, and the Kennedy assassination? And who is the 100-year-old monk who is revered as a saint in a Nepalese monastery and in whose body the presence of a strange crystal can be detected? Szilveszter Siklósi's thrilling "documentary" provides striking and convincing answers to questions that have preoccupied the world's public for nearly a generation.
