Arkhé

“Archeology” and “Archive” share the same roots. Both words come from “Arkhé”, the Greek word for “origin”. In the ruins of buildings, lost forever by earthquakes, as in the depth of the archives, we dig. These recordings have never been seen. Unedited images of the catastrophical earthquake that destroyed Mexico City in 1985. They were dug out by the adventure of an archivist that suffered with them. He dug and suffered until he could no longer see. (Cannes Film Festival)
