　　Ancient Worlds is about people and places, politics and economics, art and war, trade and technology, but above all it’s the story of the painful birth and difficult growth of a radical idea first tried and tested some six thousand years ago, and which we are still struggling with today; civilisation. Civilisation has not come easily; it’s something we’ve had to fight hard to achieve, and even harder to maintain, and the greatest threats to it have come from our own talents for destruction. But when we’ve managed to get it right, the benefits have been enormous.
　　When we talk about the ancient world we tend to think of rare and exotic artefacts or the monumental remains of epic architecture; but these are just the empty shells that got left behind when the tide of history turned! The living creatures, the civilisations, that once inhabited these shells were rarely if ever static or stately; they were dynamic, chaotic, and always threatening to spin out of control, because civilisation is based on an improbable idea; that strangers can live and work together in dense urban settings, forging new allegiances that replace the natural ties of family, clan or tribe. It’s an idea we’re still coming to terms with today, but one of the best ways to understand the challenges that are involved is to look at how our ancestors tackled them the first time around.
　　From ancient Iraq to Imperial Rome, Ancient Worlds examines how our ancestors struggled with the levers of religion and politics, art and culture, war and diplomacy, technology and trade in order to keep the complex machinery of their civilisations turning over. Their insights and blind-spots, their breakthroughs and dead ends, their triumphs and disasters are the milestones on the long and winding road that leads directly from their ancient to our modern world.

来自约翰内斯堡金山大学的荣恩，在南非的斯泰克方丹山洞发现了一副术语阿法南方古猿的化石——小脚丫。小脚丫的面世足足花了二十年，她以一种至今成谜的方式掉落到一个不见天日的山洞中。而荣恩在那个昏暗、潮湿、空气中弥漫这发霉腐烂气味的山洞中，东找西挖，爬上爬下，由于角烁岩犹如混凝土般坚硬，但化石又尤其脆弱，因此他们这二十年来只能够用小工具一点点把岩石凿开，用小刷子把小脚丫的骨架一点点清理出来，难度显而易见。小脚丫历经近 400 万年，终于以自己的方式走进了现代文明。

　　本片是苏联伟大卫国战争系列史诗巨片之一部。影片尽情歌颂了苏联人民，在德国法西斯围困列宁格勒的900个艰难的日日夜夜，所表现出来的顽强精神。影片及表现了苏军大本营对列宁格勒的战略布防，也表现出列宁格勒市民面对生死的坚忍不拔。同时也是为数不多的苏联战争影片，客观地表现了战争初期红军失利，以及红军将领伏罗希洛夫元帅组织列宁格勒城防的失败。影片还展现了列宁格勒基洛夫工厂，冒着的德军轰炸，坚持为前线生产武器，以及军队和市民通过城市唯一与外界的通道——拉多加湖通道，运送粮食、武器和其他战略物资的场面。该片还较为详实地展示了希特勒攻占列宁格勒的计划，以及红军与市民联手防御，共同抗敌的画面。这部影片，将战争的全景展示与战壕细节完美地结合起来，直到今天仍不失为一部反法西战争的优秀影片，很值得观赏和借鉴。
