The Odyssey's Scottish Sea Change The recent filming of Christopher Nolan's adaptation of Homer's epic poem on the Moray coast has left many wondering how a 3,000 year old Greek tale found its way to Scotland.
At first glance, the pairing seems unlikely – ancient Mediterranean landscapes and rugged Scottish coastline have no historical or geographical connection.
However, upon closer inspection, it becomes clear that Nolan's decision was not arbitrary. The Moray coast boasts a unique cinematic landscape of vast sand dunes, shingle bars, and pine edged marshes.
