An interesting documentary on the finds at saqqara, providing good background information and visuals. Very good quality and close-ups, felt like you were there. An enjoyable watch.

Interesting. And annoying. Another grand tomb, discovered quite near the giant pyramids of Giza. The priest of Cats! With mystery and intrigue along the way. But.. WHY do they have white captions on white backgrounds?? I tried turning on additional captions, but the version I was viewing did not seem to have them embedded. Frustrating. I missed about half of what was going on. And did it have to be so LONG? Almost two hours. Of course, a recent discovery of an egyptian tomb in such complete, undisturbed condition is pretty amazing. Produced by Lion and At-Land Productions, it appears netflix is the only distributor. Interesting but frustrating. Searching for burial chamber discoveries, I find several from february and march of 2018, where they think that this may be the tomb of the priestess Hetpet and her family. Hmmm... and why are they disregarding to many archy rules like wearing gloves when they touch newly found items, and opening things out in the bright sunlight, where they will be quickly degraded? Directed by James Tovell, known for his documentaries. It's entertaining. And long. And very non scientific.

When I was younger I wanted to be an archaeologist, I don't know what made this desire blossom in me, and watching this film came to me with incredible nostalgia and the certainty that it was good not to have continued my childish desire, to work under the ground or under intense sun. Are not my thing, passionate documentary about these discoveries, in which we are sent 4500 years ago, fantastic...
