.artSümer participated at LOOP Barcelona, a platform for film and video, with Basim Magdy's "My Father Looks for An Honest City".
"My Father Looks for an Honest City" (2010) features Magdy's father walking around an abandoned construction site with a flashlight in hand, as a re-enactment of the Greek philosopher Diogenes of Sinope's 'philosophical stunt'. Set against the sounds of a thunderstorm, the protagonist walks amidst a rubble of dreams – unfinished glass buildings, strange architectural and organic structures, stray dogs, fake palm trees – evoking a sense of slow, measured search for evidence in the wake of an apocalypse.
