The making of ATHENA covers the entire production of the film and gives us an in-depth perspective of the scenes that everyone is talking about, from the 12-minute long shot sequence to the scene that sent the cameraman 30 meters above the ground. Highlights include how Romain Gavras brought his vision to the screen, along with his co-writer Ladj Ly and Dali Benssalah (Abdel) and how the music, composed by GENER8TION, plays a unique role to make ATHENA a modern tragedy.
