Details: The director who had worldwide success with the series The Greatest Journey on Earth – sold in 29 countries – returns to us once again with an original concept. Presented as a two-part documentary that traces the history of stamps around the world, Special Delivery will engage audiences through archival material, interviews and dramatic re-enactments. The creation of a stamp involves the participation of a multidisciplinary team comprising artists, craftsmen and specialists from different fields who combine their talents to arrive at the final work. This is no doubt what explains the fascination exerted by stamps since their origin. However, the history of the post in the world remains a mystery for most of us, and that of the stamp, even more so. As a new stamp is often designed to represent an event specific to a country, it feeds our collective memory by immortalizing this event. The curse of the black stamp takes up the astonishing story of the black Twelve Pence and offers you a captivating documentary, where archival documents, interviews and dramatic reconstructions retrace, The curse of the black stamp. Assassin's Stamps is exhibited like a detective story, the disappearance, tragic end or assassination of certain historical figures to whom these Assassin's Stamps are dedicated.
