2004
Over twenty-five hundred years ago, the ancient citizens of Athens, Greece built the most magnificent temples that mankind has ever been inspired to create. These towering shrines, shrouded with unworldly spirits, were home to mysterious cults that performed bold sacrifices and evoked unspeakable wonders. And yet, from the citadel of the Acropolis came the very hallmarks of civilization, ideas that remain today the highest testament to the nobility of man -- democracy, science, philosophy and theatre. Through stunning film, interviews with experts and vivid reenactments, you'll explore the haunting mysteries that still lie buried in the mystical world of Ancient Greece.
