Description:
Was America discovered by China almost a century before Columbus staked his claim? 1421 explores this possibility with new facts and expert accounts which claim that Chinese Admiral Zheng He circumnavigated the globe and produced maps which included the America's, Australia and Antarctica. As new evidence comes to light using advanced carbon dating techniques the world's history books are being re-written as we speak. One of the most controversial historical documentaries ever made, 1421 is a compelling and stunning film that will question everything you were ever taught.
