By the Numbers
The new film 'Odissea', adapted from Homer's epic by famous director Christopher Nolan, has been released in Colombian cinemas. With a budget of approximately 250 million dollars, the production, which is one of the most expensive projects of his career, has the distinction of being the first super production shot entirely with IMAX cameras.
However, although Colombian cinephiles note that the film was actually shot in the 70 mm IMAX film format, they cannot watch it in the format designed by the producer because there is no cinema hall in the country with the hardware to offer this experience. Being able to enjoy the visual experience designed in Nolan's mind is only possible in 70 mm IMAX halls, of which there are only 41 in the world.
Despite this, the film can be watched in seven halls in three different cities offering digital IMAX technology. These digital screenings, which offer larger screens and enhanced sound systems compared to traditional cinema halls, still do not fully replace the original 70 mm film experience desired by the director.
