Urbanized, a Documentary Film by Gary Hustwit
Tuesday October 2, 2018 7pm - 8:30pm (1 Hour 30 Minutes)
Movie / Film Wheelchair Accessible All Ages
Presented by NSAA Valley Chapter
Doors open at 6:30pm
The first week of October is Architecture Week in Nova Scotia. This film is presented as one of many activities going around the province.
Premiering at the 2011 Toronto International Film Festival, Gary Hustwit’s Urbanized is a feature-length documentary about the design of cities, which looks at the issues and strategies behind urban design and features some of the world’s foremost architects, planners, policymakers, builders, and thinkers. The challenges of balancing housing, mobility, public space, civic engagement, economic development, and environmental policy are fast becoming universal concerns. Yet much of the dialogue on these issues is disconnected from the public domain. The film also explores the role and impact ordinary citizens have in improving the cities in which they live.
