A recreation and re-imagining of past grandeur, Trail of the Sphinx evolves such splendor into a very special multimedia presentation. The music is a blend of cultural sensibilities, modern and ancient motifs, electronic and acoustic instrumentation. The dances are a synthesis of traditional Middle Eastern with a contemporary interpretation, symbolic and at times sensual. The production mixes these performances against the dramatic backdrop of Egypt's archaeological treasures creating an expansive cinematic interpretation. The result is a meditation on the eternal mystery of the legendary Sphinx that leads us from the old world to a future one. The shifting sands of time may obscure its path, yet we are still drawn to its compelling destiny.
Trail of the Sphinx was directed by Michael Mannetta.
Trail of the Sphinx runs for 5min, and was released in 2019.
