Urbanized

Friday, October 28, 2011 - Tuesday, January 3, 2012

The director of Helvetica and Objectified (both IFC Center hits) completes his design trilogy with this fascinating examination of the lives of cities.  Delving into the issues and strategies behind urban design, he visits the world’s foremost architects, policymakers, thinkers and activists.  75% of the world will call a city home by 2050.  But while some cities are growing explosively, others are shrinking.  Exploring a diverse, international range of urban design projects, URBANIZED frames a global discussion on our urban future.

Official selection: Toronto International Film Festival
