The story

What Is The Egypt Code Breakers About?

The premise of The Egypt Code Breakers without spoilers.

Through newly uncovered letters between Jean‑François Champollion and his older brother Jacques‑Joseph, the film shows how the self‑taught scholar decoded ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs. Animated renderings of their correspondence, archival documents and expert commentary reveal the brother’s vital support, without which the breakthrough that reshaped 19th‑century scholarship would not have occurred, marking the bicentenary of the decipherment.
