Ashanti - [DVD]

Dr. David Linderby (Two-time Academy Award Winner Michael Caine) and his beautiful wife Anansa are carrying out an inoculation programme in an African village when Anansa disappears. David is horrified when he discovers that she's been kidnapped by a slave trader named Suleiman (Two-time Academy Award Winner Sir Peter Ustinov) who intends selling her to the wealthy Prince Hassan (Academy Award Nominee Omar Sharif) in Saudi Arabia. With the help of two adventurers, Walker (Academy Award Winner Rex Harrison) and Sandell (Academy Award Winner William Holden), David sets out in a race against time to save his wife, a quest which will lead him from the tropics of Central Africa to the scorched sands of the Sahara Desert and finally, to the Gulf of Arabia. Based on the best-selling novel, and featuring an all-star cast, Ashanti is one of the most exciting adventures ever filmed.
