Going into production in 2021, The Builders of the Alhambra tells the story of the men and women who built the emblematic fort, as they strove to reach the formula for perfect beauty. The feature-length documentary will bring together technology and history, archeology and digital rendering.  It will recreate the Nasrid society of 14th century  and the construction process of the Comares and Leones palaces, giving value to the scientific knowledge that Andalusian scholars have left us in disciplines such as astronomy, mathematics, medicine, agronomy or navigation.
