Highlight 1: Visual Parable without Dialogue The USA Pavilion features a show entitled "The Garden" - the story of a 10-year-old girl who envisages turning a vacant city lot into an urban oasis, working with her neighbors to make that happen. The movie - a visual parable without dialogue - includes plenty of computer-generated imagery and 4-D effects, like vibrating seats, mist and lightning. The girl's passion and resolution has inspired her neighbors to work together to turn a dilapidated city into a fascinating place with the spirits of optimism, innovation and cooperation.

Highlight 2: Three Acts The program begins with the "Spirit of America," a call to collaboration, and a celebration of freedom, diversity, innovation, and opportunity. "The Garden" is the centerpiece of the second part, while the last section is "Opportunities and Innovation," a themed area that highlights the use of technology and innovation to achieve more sustainable communities.

Highlight 3: Live Shows and Multimedia In addition to a daily "Dance-America!" outdoor show, the USA Pavilion will stage a wide range of performances including jazz, pop, ska and classical music, university marching bands, theater and dance, and "Salutes" the American city and state partners.
