As director Christopher Nolan's new film 'The Odyssey' generates significant buzz, behind-the-scenes stories reflecting the director's philosophy are also drawing attention.
It is reported that he brought in ships built using ancient manufacturing methods and directly constructed the city of Troy.

'The Odyssey' is well known as a project Nolan has dreamed of for over 20 years.
He reportedly first conceived the direction when he had the opportunity to participate in the production of the 2004 film Troy.
Although he ultimately did not direct Troy, the image of the Trojan Horse remained deeply engraved in his mind, leading to the production of 'The Odyssey'.
He directly built a Trojan Horse standing over 10 meters tall and a Troy set spanning 10,000 square meters, while also shipping in vessels crafted using ancient methods.
With the film's settings based on real locations, filming took place over 91 days across six countries, including Morocco.
Furthermore, the entire film was shot in IMAX, and the length of the film used is approximately 640 km, which reportedly far exceeds the highway distance from Seoul to Busan.
