Millennium (CNN television Series)
Millennium is a ten-part CNN television series narrated by Ben Kingsley, presenting a global view of the human journey of exploration, creative spirit and intellectual achievements, as well as setbacks, from the 11th to the 20th centuries. Each of the 10 episodes of MILLENNIUM focuses on a single century, brought to life by five vignettes from five different locations worldwide. Inspired by Felipe Fernandez-Armesto's book, "Millennium," and filmed in 28 countries, the series is as geographically far-ranging as the world it covers. Its producers and crews spent more than two years and traveled 100,000 miles gathering footage. MILLENNIUM reconstructs the visual images of past ages using this footage, along with vivid re-enactments and computer-generated graphic animation.
