Architecton (U)

The latest film from master documentarian Victor Kossakovsky (Gunda, Aquarela).

Architecton is an epic, intimate, and poetic meditation on architecture and how the design and construction of buildings from the ancient past reveal our destruction—and offer hope for survival and a way forward. Through Kossakovsky’s lens, the grandeur and folly of humanity and its precarious relationship with nature posits two urgent questions: how do we build, and how can we build better, before it’s too late?
