The most senseless cinema of all time

At the beginning of this century, a more or less crazy businessman from France had the sensational idea of building a cinema in the middle of the sand desert of Sinai.
He went back to Paris to raise funds. When this was done, he bought some original cinema seats and a projector from an older cinema in Cairo. Back in the desert, he set up a power
generator and took care of the screen, which looked like a giant sail.
Shortly before the premiere there was then trouble on the part of the Egyptian authorities, who were not quite so enthusiastic
about the idea. At the premiere evening, unfortunately, a lot went wrong, the power generator was sabotaged, the projector went on
strike and ultimately, not a single film could be shown. Spectators would have been there a great rarity. Now the cinema at the end of
the world rots completely unnoticed.
The timeslider makes that clear.

Hahaha... and thousand years later the archeologists will puzzle over what lost culture went to the movies in the desert? Probably wild speculations are being made. However, it was just a French artist with unrealistic visions. In this context (archeologists and 1000 years later) he could posthumously become immortal. I like artists, they usually go completely new ways. Not always understandable. But artists can give us impulses...
