Hello friends of HKDI and IVE (Lee Wai Lee)!

A documentary movie constructed as an almost uncomfortable but intensely fascinating account of how some of the best architects in the world toil, struggle and strategise to beat the competition. While nearly as old as the profession itself, architectural competitions became a social, political and cultural phenomenon of the post-Guggenheim Bilbao museums and real estate bubbles of the recent past. This is the first competition to be documented in excruciatingly raw detail. It will be followed by the post-screening talk with Director Angel Borrego Cuber.
