| ln 1960, Jane Jacobs' book The Death and Life of Great American Cities sent shockwaves through the architecture and planning worlds, with its expIoration of the consequences of modern planners' and architects' reconfiguration of cities. Jacobs was also an activist, who was invoIved in fights in mid-century New York to stop 'master buiIder' Robert Moses from running roughshod over the city. This fiIm retraces the battIes for the city as personified by Jacobs and Moses, as urbanization moves to the very front of the global agenda. Many of the cIues for formuIating solutions to the dizzying array of urban issues can be found in Jacobs' prescient text, and a close second Iook at her thinking and writing about cities is very much in order. This film sets out to examine the city of today through the Iens of one of its greatest champions. |
