THE END OF THE WORLD CINEMA

SITTING in the middle of a vast desert, an abandoned cinema is still waiting for its first movie to be screened. It has been over a decade since the outdoor cinema was built in the southern tip of the Sinai Peninsula in Egypt, at the bottom of a desert mountain range. Now the 150 wooden seats are weathered and worn by the apocalyptic surroundings, and remain empty. The screen's foundations stand broken and the building housing the generator and projector has been left crumbling.
