Movie Description
Written by Jean Claude-Carriere and Chris Marker, commissioned by S.E.P.T. and financed by the Onassis Foundation The Owl's Legacy was never broadcasted, probably not having matched the Foundation's expectations. Searching for the western cultural foundations in the ancient Greece, the 13 episodes of this TV mini-series explore the lost resonances of thirteen words, ideas that function today in a problematic relation both with their linguistic root as well as in their customary role and exercise.
