These films will screen together at Archiflix Adelaide Architecture and Design Film Festival.
Leaning Out
A man with a perspective like no other on the planet. The lead structural engineer of the World Trade Center oversees its construction, haunted by its fall ever since. The life and work of Leslie E Robertson, a guru in high-rise design. Driven by his pacifism/activism, fight for personal freedoms and a powerful union with accomplished engineer SawTeen See, the woman who emboldened and ultimately saved the man she loved.
Jean Nouvel Reflections
Pritzker Prize-winning architect Jean Nouvel, among the most thoughtful, innovative, and rebellious architects of his generation, reflects on his work past and present. We see a master in action in exclusive footage at the various stages off his process–conceptualizing, sketching, and even deciding the color of the stones to be used in the galleries of the Louvre Abu Dhabi. This is a meditative and rare portrait of one of the giants of contemporary architecture and design.
