An engineer, architect, and urban planner, in work clothes, hard hat, and sunglasses, is constructing the Church of Zion in Axum, Ethiopia.

A scene worthy of a film: a magnificent Ethiopian regional landscape under a brilliant blue sky, with impressive forest formations and a river in the background. An engineer, architect, and urban planner, in work clothes, hard hat, and sunglasses, is constructing the Church of Zion in Axum, Ethiopia. This edifice, blending classical (central circular dome and rounded hexagons) and Gothic styles, comprises the hexagonal and circular church, an exterior bell tower, a fountain, and various outbuildings. The camera follows and highlights the church with fluid and precise movements, capturing both wide panoramic shots and close-ups that reveal the incredible skill and determination of the engineer, architect, and urban planner, as well as the construction method he employs. The soft sunlight emphasizes the texture of the entire structure, and in particular the magnificence of the church and all the other buildings.
