Black Beee

About This Movie

So, Black Beee dives into this intriguing quest, you know? It's like a philosophical treasure hunt. Thodorakis, the neo-Greek, he finds this ancient letter from Epicurus, and it's not just any letter—it's layered with meaning. The pacing is a bit slow, but it really lets you absorb the atmosphere of Italy, where he goes to track down the origins of this text. There's something almost meditative about it, the way it explores themes of knowledge and the passage of time. The practical effects are simple yet effective, making you feel the weight of history. It's not flashy, but it has a certain depth that lingers with you. Definitely a unique piece for any documentary shelf.
