The production story

The film explores the search for the sanctuary near Eretria on Euboea and the evidence that brought archaeologists to Amarynthos. Its relevance extends across the sanctuary’s long history; the Classical Greece link is a contextual production resource, not a date assigned to every phase of the site.

Swiss Films records the world premiere in November 2023 and identifies the Swiss–French production. Appearance in a 2024 distributor catalogue does not make this a new 2024 release, so it is filed under 2023.

Known filming locations

Amarynthos and the Eretria area on Euboea are the central archaeological settings. A complete production itinerary is not listed in the cited record.
