Video Camera function

I just watched the movie yesterday and I really enjoyed it.

I was also thinking about some plot holes later but I hardly can find any - and yes, travel in time will be possible in the future! :-)

Indeed the most difficult matter of travelling in time is well explained with the Khaum speech in the caravan and the time paradox of being in the past for an interval of time without even applying for it on the travel device.

The only thing that comes to my mind is the possibility of putting into operation a 500 or a 2000 years old video camera...and still works! I know it is a very new Sony VCR with memory incorporated and Steffen even wonders himself of the memory availability after such a long time, but how is about the battery life?

First of all, it is already difficult to believe that the monks who discovered it 500 AD coud still be able to put into operation the VCR after so many years without use. Nevertheless it happened according to their written testimonies about a mirror with JC face...and just as well it really happened, otherwise the movie plot would be ruined from this very moment.

From this point we can imagine that from the 6th century the monks kept watching the film (magic mirror) until the battery ran out once and for all and from here they worshipped the VCR as a holy stuff in the following centuries.

But later on we have the monk in the present days who is shocked with Steffen image and he touches his faces as if he had seen him on the video...perhaps did he connect the VCR to a laptop in the sanctuary? well improbable too...then Stephen tries to see the film but of course the battery is not longer available. Therefore we have the fact that the VCR has not been put into operation for the last 1400 years or so.

Then they watch the film in the laptop by the hellicopter, memory is still OK, how lucky!

As a result, I wonder if it is possible for a modern VCR to keep its memory after a few years off, not to say after thousand of years but for that we will need some time to check I guess...anyone with good knowledge about VCR specs to provide some light about these battery and memory subjects?

Nevertheless, great entertainment with this "Das Jesus Video"!
