In 1960 Jane Jacobs’s book The Death and Life of Great American Cities sent shockwaves through the architecture and planning worlds, with its exploration of the consequences of modern planners’ and architects’ reconfiguration of cities. Jacobs was also an activist, who was involved in many fights in mid-century New York, to stop “master builder” Robert Moses from running roughshod over the city. This film retraces the battles for the city as personified by Jacobs and Moses, as urbanization moves to the very front of the global agenda. Many of the clues for formulating solutions to the dizzying array of urban issues can be found in Jacobs’s prescient text, and a close second look at her thinking and writing about cities is very much in order. This film sets out to examine the city of today though the lens of one of its greatest champions.

In the near future, China Tracy will build a city dubbed RMB City within Second Life. This will be the condensed incarnation of contemporary Chinese cities with most of their characteristics; a series of new Chinese fantasy realms that are highly self-contradictory, inter-permeative, laden with irony and suspicion, and extremely entertaining and pan-political. 　　China's current obsession with land development in all its intensity will be extended to Second Life. A rough hybrid of communism, socialism and capitalism, RMB City will be realized in a globalized digital sphere combining overabundant symbols of Chinese reality with cursory imaginings of the country's future. In RMB City, we will be able to cruise the digital ocean, witnessing a Ferris wheel rotating on top of the Monument to the People's Heroes; looking down from the sky on the water of the Three Gorges reservoir gushing out of the Tian'anmen rostrum; passing the giant new totem symbolizing the Oriental Pearl TV Tower of Shanghai; hopping over the Feilai Temple marooned in a raging torrent; walking across a vast, desolate state-owned factory area in Northeast China; and finally hovering over the Grand National Theatre in Beijing. Also in our view will be gigantic planes gliding over terraces in the crevices of the central business district, and aerial super-malls. We will see water flowing into huge toilets on the container piers of the Pearl River Delta area before traveling through the sewage system into an ocean with floating statues of Mao Zedong. The rusted steel structure of the Olympic Stadium aka "Bird's Nest" will be washed in splashes of ocean spray, while an aerial band on a floating sheet of the national flag filled with five-pointed stars makes a deafening noise that shakes Rem Koolhaas' CCTV building, causing it to collapse....

沙特王室以美国为后盾继续对国内的统治。 　　1973年，针对同盟国沙特的石油禁运措施，为保证石油供应美国甚至制订了入侵沙特的计划。可是不等计划实施，沙特率先背叛了阿拉伯联盟的约定，秘密向美国输油。 　　海湾战争时，面对伊拉克屯兵边境，沙特举国举债，出资500亿美元，作为55万美军的军费开支。石油出口大国沙特并负责提供美军航油供应，当时富有戏剧性的成为世界第一航油进口国。战争结束之后，美军赖着不走，对于异教徒驻军在沙特，沙特也予以默认。 　　一味对美国的追随引起了国内民众的强烈不满——费萨尔国王被刺，伊斯兰极端分子占领麦加大清真寺，沙特胡拜尔的美国军事基地发生恐怖袭击，并间接导致了911事件。 　　911之后，美国民众对沙特丧失信任，沙特与美国的同盟关系在慢慢崩溃。目前，沙特的最大魅力石油，美国已经可以从傀儡国伊拉克获得。沙特与美国的同盟关系，今后也会持续下去吗？

在无意中于淘宝上发现仿真小人模型和建筑模型后，曹斐便开始试图描摹一座虚拟的末世城市La Town的过往与命运。这部40余分钟的定格拍摄影片全部由微缩人物与场景组成，整座城市散发着诡异而不详的气息，随处可见废弃的建筑、破败的商店和各种丧尸人物、动物。曹斐将电影《广岛之恋》中的经典对白进行改编之后引入片中，男女梦呓般的法语旁白犹如两个幽灵漂浮于城市上空，重复地描述着一座城市的过去与命运。影片结尾，这座城市摇身一变成了一座“夜间美术馆”，人物和街道变为展品，呈现出一部虚实难辨的末日图鉴。 　　正如曹斐在访谈中对于自己这个时期创作状态的总结：“如果说《谁的乌托邦》还是一种抒情的、人性的、对未来的希望，“人民城寨”就是一种对未来世界的积极畅想和拥抱。那么这两个项目（《La Town》和《霾》）虽然都是虚构的，但是走向的好像是另外一个方向，完全的失落，或者是看清楚了这个世界已经没有出路了，特别绝望，无论结尾是否还有希望。”
