Documentary

This is the amazing story of Petter Amundsen, who believes he has deciphered a secret code hidden in Shakespeare's first folio, and Dr. Robert Crumpton, a skeptical historian and Shakespeare expert. Is there truth in Amundsen's claims? Are these codes part of something larger, secrets spanning centuries? Crumpton follows along as Amundsen reveals a coded map found in Shakespeare's texts that may lead to one of history's greatest treasures.
