Everything about this production screams labor-of-love by the producers. This is a low budget, made for BBC TV, quite reasonably accurate depiction of the volcanic destruction of Minos (modern day island of Thera) in circa 1630 BC. The depiction of bull-leaping and reconstruction of Minoan society is the best ever yet filmed and while many aspects of the ancient society is toned down for G-rated television, it is evocative and gorgeous. Watch it if you can. The Blu-Ray version is beautiful.
