Mysterious Cities Of Gold - ARG???
Not sure if this is real, an ARG or someones well made prank

So, I found a video in French with English subs supposedly announcing a Mysterious Cities Of Gold live action film from April this year, with a hundred or so hits on youtube and at the end a link to a website in English with the same video and a second one and a couple of pictures.

There is also a link sort of hidden at the bottom of the page to another website in French about Solar energy.

The website and video seem genuine but it had so few hits which seemed odd as there are so many fans.

My French extends to Oui and Bon, so couldn't make out much from the French website.

Just looking for some help to investigate this a little and see if this is a game relating to the new TV series or a red herring.
Thanks.

Knew I forgot something...

And the solar site found by clicking on the text, 100% solar website http://www.websolaire.ch/index.php/presentation


The origianal video I found is the one on the front of the site and clicking on the twitter link shows the link to the second video.

the French is because it is based in Switzerland.

Closest I found was a tv series
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2563792/

oh, the youtube description is all you need to know:

The solar company site link you found is just the "solar powered" web developers who built the site and/or web hosting servers.
