J’observe la façon dont l’architecture représente les transformations de la société et ceux qui donnent forme à cette architecture. Nous suivons le parcours de Munio, mon père, né en 1909 en Silésie, en Pologne, fils d’un métayer d’un junker prussien. A l’âge de 18 ans, Munio part à Berlin et à Dessau pour aller rencontrer Walter Gropius, Kandinsky et Paul Klee au Bauhaus. En 1933, le Bauhaus est fermé par les nazis, qui accusent Munio de trahison envers le peuple allemand. Munio est emprisonné, puis expulsé à Bâle. Il part pour la Palestine. A son arrivée à Haïfa, il entame une carrière d’architecte et il adapte les principes européens modernistes au Moyen Orient.
