Description
Deep in the shipyards of Doha, amidst the whirring of table saws and heavy machinery, we enter the world of Dhow boat construction. Primarily still crafted by hand, with the metalwork relentlessly hammered and worked straight from the furnace, this silent meditative film gives us a glimpse into the precision engineering and expert craftsmanship that is involved in the creation of Qatar's most iconic vessel.
