My impressions

A huge development project that will transform a part of the city into a vision of progress and modernity.

Faux pas architecture, with all its attendant grotesque design. Beautiful to some, but ugly beyond redemption for others.

This place witnesses the transformation of a boy from the village into a man. At first innocent, and eventually wise to the city’s ways. The accidental encounter with his elder brother brought a different perspective to his world view. In the end, he had to make decisions of which path to take.

A familiar theme of the rural urban migration scene.
