Synopsis

Through gorgeous superimposition, the ever-changing urban landscape of Doha under construction is dreamily contemplated in this wordless, wonderfully languid documentary essay. Images of cranes, rising towers and roadways in flux – constants in contemporary Doha’s personality – create a striking, dynamic collage that is reminiscent of a day’s wandering through Qatar’s crown city. As morning becomes daytime and sunset leads to night, order is made of chaos and a sense of peace is imposed on the frenetic pace of progress.
