- Summary:
- "The film was 82 minutes of architects talking about design, the profession, public processes, proessional frustrations, and personal manifestos. ... For the film I met with 24 architects, 3 academicians and 5 students of architecture in the city over the course of two weeks. I collected around 15 hours of footage, traveled close to 500 kms, and lost 5 kilos in the process."--Container.
