00:00Okay, Iman, let's start.
00:01What do you want to know?
00:03I want everyone to know that you love me.
00:08She's one of the most prolific and profound women architects in the world today.
00:12Ada is not like Ada, a shadow of light.
00:15I think it's beautiful, what she does.
00:19The role of architecture is to find the cohesion between things.
00:24Because without a cohesion we have no language.
00:27It's also true for life, isn't it?
00:29Yes, it's also true for life.
00:31Most of the buildings, almost until the end of the 19th century,
00:33were buildings that had a center.
00:36But you could say, if you were a little more romantic,
00:39that when there was a center, there was a heart to the building.
00:41So today there are buildings that don't have a heart,
00:43for all intents and purposes.
00:45Do you think it was harder for women?
00:47I thought that it's a profession only for men like my brother and my father.
00:51It was really, really tough.
00:54Working on the Supreme Court changed my life.
00:56It's crazy.
00:57Everyone thinks you should enter into some bombastic lobby,
01:01but you have this grand staircase,
01:03and then Jerusalem is right in front of you.
01:05I'm excited.
01:07One of the conditions of the Supreme Court contract
01:09was that she would only spend a few weeks a year outside of Israel.
01:12But she had three kids in the States.
01:14Is there something you want to ask me?
01:16Yes. How do you manage to love me for so many years?
01:20What's so funny? I'm not with you.
01:23We're not used to thinking about time.
01:25We think that time only happens to others,
01:28but it happens to everybody.
01:29And the alone never gets to be too much?
01:31Of course it's too much, but also togetherness is too much.
01:35It's all a question of proportion.
