In a theatrical setting, these guests will be able to conjure up that ancient world, which will then come to life through images and sounds. A vast wealth of high-resolution photographs, collected by Sandro Vannini in the course of 20 years of archaeological excavations, will bring the world of the Ancient Egyptians to light, as the smallest details of their jewelry and their vividly colored paintings are revealed, and of course the magical atmosphere of the temples, tombs, as well as the unspoilt nature of Upper Egypt are unfailingly retraced, with a photographic approach aimed entirely at evoking a world imagined to correspond to the dreams of the Ancient Egyptians. By means of a unique range of visual effects, paintings, jewelry and sculptures become the pieces with which to trace the idea the Ancient Egyptians had of birth, life and death. Episodes: 1.

It is an exciting journey down the Nile with narratives intertwining as they do in the timeless tale of Scheherazade: from Zahi Hawass telling us about Tutankhamun’s treasure and its curse, to the great heritage of stories painted on the walls of tombs and temples but also on fragile Egyptian papyri, from the food that is still part of the everyday life of the country to the tomb of Nefertari, the most beautiful of the ones that have survived over the millennia. What is more, the Egyptian Museum in Cairo, the Nile with its boats and the fertile valley that has characterized it for thousands of years, the incredible skill and pragmatism of the craftsmen, the role of beauty and clothing, the animals, magical or otherwise, that populate religion and the large pantheon of Egyptian gods, ancient music and its influence on contemporary music, measuring time and the religion of the Pharaohs with their long-lived dynasties, the importance of local economy, the period of Jewish slavery, popular culture, and the impressive grandeur of the Pyramids.
