In terms of a precedent, the composer Richard Wagner comes to mind who has specially constructed theaters for the performance of his operas. in terms of having a screenplay for the set to be constructed for, my brother who is a director, has volunteered to help co-write a story with me.
I'm just throwing this idea out there. obviously I need a full presentation to clear up other questions.

to clear the question in page 4 of 4. should an intervention aim to undo or change vision.
how are you going to address the senses? this is hard to respond to.
?
Im looking at Deleuze talks about human, and non-human experssivity, and excitablitilty. which may be linked to Emile Durkheim's notion of the social current. i idea is everything in this world, wheather it is organic or not, is governed by laws such as those of physics, electricity, and so on. humans are different in that they are also goverened by the unwritten laws of society (that is Durkheim's argument)
my proposal of a mosque set for a film will attempt to incorporate sensorial government, which is to say humans also are governed by 5 senses. 'real' society expects an individual to smell smells, hear sounds and so on. a fictitious screenplay (or an 'unreal' society ) may bend rules, and blur the boundaries of senses, and of culture for that matter.
here is a link to Durkheim's essay on "the social fact"
