Was it a true bronze Apollo, dating x years before B. C. ?
There are some reasons to doubt about it, but personally, after having enjoyed this doc, frankly : I don't care !
The story is about giving hope, joy and enlightenment to all of us reaching for a better world.
It also about the dark sides of what's going on,
at different levels, but anywhere on our planet,
for most of us.
This documentary was made with great sensitivty, passion, restrained, not taking side, how should a real documentary filmmaker behave : put facts, show what we know and what we don't, and let us choose our own opinion on a topic.
I had to wait 3 years to be able to see it, couldn't put my hand on it, and finally, and ironically, could watch in the original language, French, and on the Swiss replay Television network. In my own country !
Another amused wink of life... :-)
Last but not least, beautiful score and images.
Kudos to the director and all involved in it.
A simple beauty, a mystical story !
Orson Welles's quote resumes it much better than my comment...
a film is never really good unless the camera
is an eye in the head of a poet Orson Welles.
