Informazioni sul libro
Nestled on the border with Yemen sits one of Saudi Arabia’s oldest and most unique cultural regions which has persisted for thousands of years. However in the next 20 years an entire culture is in danger of disappearing as globalization takes its hold on the most crucial demographic, the 18–35-year-olds. The last 20 years have already devastated the region with young men leaving their traditional villages in search of jobs and education not available in their hometowns. This book and accompanying film is a journey through several cities of the southwestern region of Saudi Arabia to discover what remains, and what the future holds for the 100-year-old country.
