Chris Marker dissects thirteen Greek root words to learn about the legacy of ancient Greece on the modern world. From the United States to Japan, he walks his camera where every word makes sense. He meets Hellenists, logicians, politicians, artists, and compares their discourse with the memories of cinematheques.
