The Odyssey
Christopher Nolan / US, GB, 2026 / 173 min.
What to do after the success of Oppenheimer? Director Christopher Nolan read up on his classics and adapted Homer’s epic about Odysseus’ ten years at sea, returning home after conquering Troy. Matt Damon plays Odysseus. Filmed using the spectacular IMAX® 70mm technology, on view at Eye at 70mm.
In Nolan’s version of Homer’s epic about Odysseus, it is the all-American Matt Damon who plays the tormented hero. After successfully destroying arch-rival Troy, Odysseus and his men spend a decade journeying home to Ithaca, where his wife Penelope waits. During this time, they are subject to many trials and tribulations, including the cyclops Polyphemus, the seductive Sirens, the passage between Scylla and Charybdis, as well as the evil sorceress Circe. And, once he is finally back home, he first has to recapture the throne with the help of his son.
Screened on 70mm-print.

The cinema halls at Eye Filmmuseum are not only equipped with modern digital projectors; analogue films on 35mm and 70mm film strips are also regularly shown. This makes Eye one of the few remaining cinemas where you can still experience film on celluloid. And that's special, because the viewing experience of analogue film remains unparalleled.
