Mégastructures, quand le génie s'en mêle

The Eiffel Tower is not the only work of its eponymous creator, Gustave Eiffel, who imagined, designed and supervised no less than 350 structures throughout the world. Using innovative solutions and techniques, Gustave Eiffel initiated an architectural revolution in all fields, which led to the completion of some of the most beautiful structures of the century. And not only in France. Throughout the world, he built bridges, railroads, viaducts and railway stations. Thanks to the lightness and flexibility of the material, he will be the creator of ever higher and more complex structures. This film is a panorama of his greatest creations that have marked the modern era.
