2019 Resene Architecture & Design Film Festival

With possibly the most compelling line-up to date, the annual Resene Architecture & Design Film Festival gives you every reason to hole up inside the cinema for its entire run.

The masters – Frank Lloyd Wright, Renzo Piano, Richard Neutra and Mies van der Rohe – get top billing, each with their own dedicated documentary coverage, while a catalogue of films from across; there’s an expose on a US futurist’s experimental city of the 60s; Dieter Rams points out that the “time of thoughtless design for thoughtless consumption is over”; and in time for its centennial, visionary concepts are explored in . And that’s just skimming the surface of more than 20 thought-provoking portraits and documentaries.
