Synopsis
The perfect alignment linked to the cardinal points, the layout reflecting that of the stars, the sun setting over the Sphinx’s shoulder, 8 sides instead of 4 appearing on the Great Pyramid of Giza during the equinox…To what extent has astronomy been a guide for ancient Egyptians?
Although many alternative theories have arisen, this documentary will lead a new investigation, from the Giza Plateau to the Milky Way.
By using state-of-the-art 3D animations, thanks to recent discoveries and by questioning current theories, astronomers, Egyptologists, architects embark on a fascinating analysis to understand that there is nothing uncalculated about the Giza Plateau, and that everything is linked to the stars surrounding us.
