The Marbles

12A

For over 200 years, the Parthenon Sculptures have sat in the British Museum  — trophies of empire to some, stolen heritage to others. The Marbles  is the definitive documentary on the world’s most bitter cultural tug-of-war: who owns history?  From the passionate campaign of actress-turned-minister Melina Mercouri to today’s quiet diplomacy, the film shows how Britain’s refusal to return the marbles pits law against justice, politics against identity.
