Culture, Nature and Light: These elements provide the structure for the one-hour documentary film that explores the mind and heart of one of the world’s master architects, Chinese-American I.M. Pei,  while chronicling his latest creation; the Museum of Islamic Art in Doha, Qatar. 

Produced by award winning directors Bo Landin and Sterling Van Wagenen the film visits Alhambra and Cordoba in Spain, and Cairo, to search for references to understand the essence of Pei’s architecture that will find its historical  place in an Islamic world stretching from Cordoba to Samarkand. The new Museum of Islamic Art has already been dubbed “The Louvre of the Middle East” and after opening its doors to the public in November 2008 it has been baptized an architectural world wonder, exposing one of the world’s most magnificent collections of Islamic art.
