GREAT ART ON SCREEN The Immortals: The Wonders of the Museo Egizio

Regular price $12.00

Description

This documentary is a journey among the most beautiful archaeological finds Egypt has left us.

Kha, architect and builder of tombs for the pharaohs, must undertake the journey to the Underworld. Telling us the story of his voyage is Jeremy Irons, in the guise of a narrator. His words take us inside the secret world of Egyptian mythology, religion and funerary culture, interweaving the story with the history of the oldest museum in the world, the Museo Egizio in Turin, founded in 1824 and will soon be celebrating its 200th anniversary. In fact, the Kha’s own Tomb is to be found in Turin along with the most complete and most valuable private collection of grave goods outside of Egypt.

This film is distributed by BYExperience.

The screening will take place in Saturday, February 17 from 2:00 to 3:30 pm at the Southern Vermont Arts Center, Arkell Pavilion.
