This aerial journey through modern Egypt showcases a nation that is building its future while preserving its extraordinary history inherited from antiquity. Yann Arthus-Bertrand, with the narration of Pio Marmaï, takes us over a country in the midst of transformation, faced by natural challenges. From fields to cities, industries to schools, Egypt unfolds through its everyday life. Spanning the vast eastern desert of Africa, Mount Sinai, the Red Sea, and the banks of the Nile, this journey becomes a quest to rediscover a nation once thought lost under the weight of its own history.
