I will make up a song and sing it in a theatre with the night air above my head.

Synopsis

Egyptian architect Hassan Fathy designed New Gourna in 1954, introducing ecological principles for mud architecture to Egypt. He dreamt that rural populations might have sustainable lives.
Stills and an experimental soundtrack take a haunting look at efforts from the 1940s in sustainability in the Middle East.
