Episode 1. Jason and the Argonauts : the journey from boy to man. --
Episode 2. The Odyssey : the journey home from Troy. BBC Education & Training ; produced and directed by Jean Claude Bragard.
In this landmark series, we re-tell the stories of the Odyssey and Jason and the Argonaut for a modern audience, revealing the hidden and fascinating meanings buried deep in Greek mythology and its resonance for us today. These films look beneath the surface of each myth to unveil some suprisingly modern themes: Odysseus is torn between glory at work and happiness at home, while Jason's journey symbolizes the battle of the sexes."--Container.
