An old man dreams of the future of a desert city as he naps under the hot sun. His dreams take him through time from 1991 to 2015, showing him how the city develops from desert to a modern metropolis with towering skyscrapers, an extensive public transit system, artificial islands, and more buildings than palm trees. Flying high above the futuristic city, the man is amazed by what he sees and could never have imagined such growth and development possible.
