Fue quizás el florecimiento más espectacular de logros e imaginación en la historia escrita. En los siglos IV y V A.C. los griegos levantaron un imperio que atravesaba el Mediterráneo de Asia a España. Fueron pioneros de la ciencia moderna, la política, la guerra y la filosofía, y produjeron algunos de las creaciones artísticas y arquitectónicas más sobrecogedoras que se hayan visto en el mundo. Los Griegos: Crisol de la Civilización narra el ascenso, la gloria, la desaparición y la herencia del imperio que marcó el amanecer de la civilización occidental.
La historia de esta increíble civilización será narrada a través de las vidas de los grandes héroes de la Antigua Grecia. Se utilizarán las técnicas televisivas e informáticas para reconstruir la Acrópolis, recrear la batalla de Maratón y recuperar la grandeza de la Academia, donde Sócrates, Platón y Aristóteles forjan los cimientos del pensamiento occidental.

“Years of innocence” signifies the return to the sports memories that have been the balm of the souls of our grandparents, our fathers and those younger people who have heard the narratives or studied the photographs of the great idols of older times.
