Greece: Secrets of the Past

"Greece is the birthplace of democracy, Western philosophy, the Olympic Games, Western literature, political science, major scientific and mathematical principles, and Western drama including both tragedy and comedy." It's also very beautiful. Scenes from the IMAX film "Greece: Secrets of the Past". Filmed at the locations: Milos, Santorini, Athens, Corinth Canal, Cape Sounio, Delos, Piraeus. (The orchestral piece is "Zorba's Return" from Mikis Theodorakis's Zorbas Ballet Suite.)

Very cool. Gotta see this movie and visit this country. How are the people there? Most of the Greeks in Toronto that I`ve met are jerks.

For the love of god tell me where I can download this song. I`ve been looking for it for an hour.

Such a shame that just about all the progress brought forth by the Greeks and Romans was wiped out by crazed Christianity during the middle ages.

I really think they could have industrialized if they had another couple hundred years.

Greece was also the birthplace of gayness.

Im greek and yeah greeks are total douches now - so full of themselves yet the ANCIENT past is the only thing they can be proud of.

@Lord-69

My old piano teacher was Greek and he was a really nice guy, apart from being an amazing musician and I`ve also met a couple of Greeks and they`re all really nice people Idk what you mean.

^ Isn`t that what we all do? Criticising one`s own country or one`s own nation..... Human beings as a whole suck ass, no wonder we compare each other`s faults...

// Hope the film mentions Byron`s "Isles of Greece", that`s a strong poem :)
