Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom

The film is set in 1935 and begins in Shanghai. Escaping from the gangsters of the Lao Che gang, Indiana Jones and his companions-the singer of the Shanghai variety show Willie Scott and an 11-year-old Chinese boy nicknamed "Shorty" fly away on a plane in the direction of India. Over the Himalayas, the pilots jump off with a parachute and the trio have to glide out of the falling plane on an inflatable boat into the river. After a dangerous rafting trip, the heroes get to the village of Mayapur somewhere in northern India. Not far from the village is the Pankot Temple, where the bloodthirsty thugs, led by Mol Ram, worship the goddess Kali. Indiana decides to help the villagers and return to them the sacred stone stolen by the Tugs, and at the same time free the children who are being used as slaves by the Tugs.

Upon reaching the temple, the trio unexpectedly meets with the Prime Minister of the temple, Chattar Lal, who gives the guests a warm welcome. In the evening, they are invited to a lavish banquet given by the young Maharaja Zalim Singh. After the banquet, an assassin enters Indiana's room, and the archaeologist miraculously survives. In Willie's room, he finds a secret passage to the tunnel system under the temple. Shorty and Willie run with him. The fugitives notice a lot of children who are forced to work in underground mines. They find themselves in a secret underground temple of Kali, where the Thugs perform a ritual of worship to the goddess and prepare to offer her a human sacrifice. The ritual is performed by the priest Mol Ram. Indy notices the three sacred stones and tries to steal them, but the three are apprehended. Indy is forced to drink a potion that puts him in a trance. Willie Scott is captured by cult fans who are going to sacrifice the girl. At the last moment, Indy breaks free and saves Willie. Indy takes the three stones and goes to the mines to free the slave children. He is tried to stop by Maharaja Singh, who has power over Indiana, controlling him through a voodoo doll. However, he is stopped by Shorty, who knocks the doll out of the boy's hands.

The main characters escape from the underground temple on a trolley on a branch of the underground railway. Mola Ram orders the floodgates to be opened and a flood from the underwater river to follow the fugitives. At the last moment, the fugitives escape from the stormy water. They climb to the surface and cross over a suspension bridge that stretches over a crocodile-infested river. They are chased by Ram's henchmen, but Indiana cuts the bridge's ropes. At the last moment, the British Indian Army comes to the rescue of the archaeologist and his companions. The children are released. Indiana goes to the village and returns the locals their sacred stone (the other two fall into the river).
