Filmmaker Mohamed El Zayat's "STRUCTURES" is a short film that was inspired by the Nasr City, the modernist desert city east of Downtown Cairo that was established in the late 1950s and is home to brutalist housing, stadiums, and other buildings.

"This black and white short is inspired by the brutalist urban structures of one Cairo’s most iconic neighborhoods: Nasr city. Narrated by Egyptian actor Magued El Kedwany."
