Brussels (Belgium) and Sheffield (United Kingdom) — nWave Pictures Distribution is premiering its newest 4D attraction film “Tomb Racers” at this week’s European Attractions Show in Gothenburg (Sweden). Produced by British animation studio Red Star 3D and directed by Ben Smith, this thrilling action and adventure film takes audiences into the legendary Lost Tomb of Egypt. This new 12-minute 4D title is exclusively distributed by nWave and will be available to theme parks and attraction exhibitors worldwide.

“Tomb Racers 4D” depicts the story of three treasure-hunters who risk their lives to locate the legendary Lost Tomb of Egypt. Battered by dust storms and threatened by marauding crocodiles, danger lurks at every turn as they battle the elements, and each other, in their desperate bid to solve the ancient puzzle.
