Journey to the Centre of the Earth

An adventurous geology professor chances upon a manuscript in which a 16th-century explorer claims to have found a route to the earth& apos; s core. Professor Lidenbrock can& apos; t resist the opportunity to investigate, and with his nephew Axel, he sets off across Iceland in the company of Hans Bjelke, a native guide.

The expedition descends into an extinct volcano toward a sunless sea, where they encounter a subterranean world of luminous rocks, antediluvian forests, and fantastic marine life a living past that holds the secrets to the origins of human existence.
