Description
The film presents the view of Jacques Grimault's unpublished works about the construction of the Pyramids of Giza and other ancient archaeological sites around the world.[1]
His main point is that there is a slow cycle of geological changes on Earth, including the change of the magnetic poles, which cause great catastrophes about every 26 000 years, and he believes there was another human civilisation before ours which was destroyed by such catastrophes. Pyramids and other ancient buildings were built by them, and the Pyramids of Giza were not primarily tombs, but rather a mathematical riddle, its answer being a warning of this cycle. Grimault views the current global warming as a forerunner of these catastrophic events.
Reception
According to journalist Paul Conge, "Grimault implicitly uses a racial motif" behind his pseudoscientific theses[2] and defends negationist theories.[3]
