What’s fascinating is how it juxtaposes the birth of science with the destruction of war. The pacing feels almost meditative at times, allowing you to absorb the weight of history. And the atmosphere? It’s poignant, reflective, and you can feel the tension between conflict and peace. There's no flashy CGI or over-the-top dramatizations here; it's really about the raw, human elements.
