The Oscar winning film director Costas Gavras created a 13 minutes film that was a part of the Acropolis museum exhibition since its opening earlier this year.

    “Mortal!” -twas thus she spake- “that blush of shame
    Proclaims thee Briton, once a noble name;
    First of the mighty, foremost of the free,

    That all may learn from whence the plunderer came,
    The insulted wall sustains his hated name:

    Fragment from ‘The Curse of Minerva’ by Lord Byron, 1811
