Summary In 1244, during a time of religious persecution, Pope Innocent IV and King Louis IX of France sought to eradicate a pacifist Christian group known as Cathars. The last of the Cathar heretics found protection at the Castle of Montsegur. Here a dedicated group of about 100 defending knights, under the Leadership of Lord Raymond and his family, held a crusading army of over 10,000 mercenaries at bay for 9 months. To this day, many people believe that the Cathars were the guardians of a treasure of great significance, possibly even the Holy Grail. It is rumoured that in the last days of the siege a small group managed to slip away in the dead of night to retrieve this hidden treasure and get it safely away from the clutches of the Catholic Church.

Gateway 66

Gateway 66

The series begins with an unsuccessful experiment performed by Professor Teodora Teodori which consists in opening a time/space portal. Unfortunately, a sudden storm with unexpected lightning creates an unpredictable event, and the Professor is catapulted through time at hypersonic speed, only to end up trapped inside a Parallel Lab. Stepping through the time/space portal also turns Teodora Teodori into an animated character. Her assistant who is also in the lab during the botched experiment, oddly turns into a Turaco bird. The Turaco bird exits the lab, carrying the "wood box" which opens the time/space portal. Then we meet the series' main characters: Anna and Gabriele. Anna is on her way to the Museum of Natural History to begin her internship there, and she is making Gabriele go with her. Gabriele doesn't really like animals. In fact, he especially doesn't like dinosaurs. He does, however, have a passion for drawing and loves making funny sketches of everyone he knows. The Turaco bird convinces Anna to use the "wood box" to open the portal and go search for Professor Teodori. Gabriele will also enter the portal, along with Marco (the paleontologist who is their guide during the Museum tour), Professor Drago (a shady scientist) and, of course, the Turaco bird. As the series evolves, the challenges Professor Teodori goes through (trapped in the Parallel Lab) to convey information to the kids about her location will also be revealed. Another significant aspect of the Series is the journey our main characters will go on through the various eras, starting from 66 million years ago on the trail of Professor Teodori's travels at hypersonic speed. We will discover Professor Drago's plans to alter the events on the evolutionary timeline to his own advantage. The series ends with Professor Teodori being rescued and the disclosure of Professor Drago's actions. The story will unfold in a mixed media of live action and animation.
