Summary
Straddling the East and the West, the fabled lands of Arabia have long evoked images of Bedouins and bazaars. But here sifting sands have given way to oases of cement and steel. But before the cities, preceding the crowds, the first caravans to come, came from India. The film is a story of collaboration between cultures. Of Indian ingenuity that's been married to Arabian panache to build cities, dreams and life itself.
