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.

Directed by Benjamin Weill and Kourtrajmeuf

i love seeing bts footage and tbh i just wanted to see the way they made those ready smooth one take shots and finding out that they actually passed the camera around to the operators respectively for each scene is quite cool. especially the camera work in and out of the police van. im in awe of this film

veo esto y deseo más y más trabajar en el cine, aunque sea el que le cambia las baterías a las cámaras, es increíble el despliegue que se hace para esta película, los actores son los propios vecinos del barrio, control de riesgos impecable con el uso de inflamables reales y ya de la cámara no se que decir

ya podrían hacer esto en san pablo tf

As if I wasn’t in awe of this film prior.

Gavras was so dedicated to making a masterpiece they recorded 80% on IMAX even though it was going to Netflix, which only increases my adoration for the choreography and planning too.
