Ten years of war. Ten more to find the way home. The whole voyage of Odysseus, from the wooden horse to the bow, told in twelve chapters as one film.
One chapter a few days apart through November, for anyone who wants the voyage in parts.
Short films with voices, from inside the epic.
The Greek myths everyone half remembers, each in under three minutes.
The great stories of the Old Testament, one minute each.
New stories of our own.
Hector is dead. At night, an old king crosses the enemy lines alone to kneel before the man who killed his son and ask for the body back.
Drawn from Book 24 of Homer's Iliad and set in the Late Bronze Age: boar's-tusk helmets, tower shields, four-spoked chariots and the walls of Troy as they really stood.
With Achilles, Hector, Priam, Hecuba and Andromache.
Ancient stories, retold as films.
Cinematic Universe is an independent studio making short films and features from the oldest stories we have: Homer, the Greek myths and the Bible, plus a few new stories of our own.
Every film is made with AI image, video and voice tools, then written, cut, scored and checked by hand, down to the shields and the spokes of the chariot wheels.
We are not affiliated with any studio film. New Shorts arrive every week on YouTube.
