Egypt from Above

Flying around Algeria, the north African country.

Yann Arthus-Bertrand has risen into the air to capture the beauty of Morocco, a country of violent contrasts where mountains and plains, rich soil and sand dunes, cedars and palm trees, sea and wadis, large cities and oases rub shoulders.

Everyone knows Egypt's pyramids, pharaohs and tourist beaches. But what do we actually know about today's compatriots? To fill this gap, Yann Arthus-Bertrand undertakes an epic flight along the Nile. Beyond the clichés, the legendary photographer encounters a nation searching for its future between the banks of the Nile, megacities and the Arab Spring.
