Documentary, DNK / FIN / SWE, 2017, 93 min, in English, Danish, Czech subtitles Director: Kaspar Astrup Schröder
Bjarke Ingels is a Danish architect who strives to fight against conventions, which sets him apart from many of his peers. He is the founder of the studio BIG, and over the years he has established himself among the most progressive architects of the middle generation. Last year, Time magazine included him in the list of the 100 most influential people on the planet. Each of his new projects is even larger than the previous one. His office recently completed the design for The Spiral skyscraper right in the heart of Manhattan, whose glass facade features a band of green terraces. However, Bjarke Ingels longs to build something that will shape the future of architecture, thus forever etching his name in history. The documentary by director Kaspar Astrup Schröder also presents him as an ordinary person who experiences ups and downs and faces love and fear of illness.
