LE CHANT D'EMPÉDOCLE

Information on the activity

Dates to come

At the intersection of philosophy and sensory exploration, this is a film about Greece: a historic, geographic and political heartland. The words of Empedocles set the tone for our journey, as thought evolves through the centuries and writers accompany us as we travel the rugged landscape. We meet humans, animals, old stones both sculpted and rough: here, each of them has importance, telling the story of an ancestral world that is not immune to big upheavals. Ancient traditions and knowledge meet modern industry amidst timeless landscapes rich in memory. Sounds and images invoke the elements, transporting us from the very beginning to the first stirrings of the revolt to come.
