According to IMDB as summarising the movie - "50 % of the world's population lives in urban areas. By 2050 this will increase to 80%."
Modern life has been facing so many problematic challenges including energy efficiency, climate change, human well-being, pollution and a wonder to have a happy-life.
The city has shaped the way we live and we do not follow the path that how we deserve to live our life in the city. The mainstream of businesses, economic impacts, pressure of a brighter future have influenced the way we work out a plan to create a place for everyone! Infact, for those who have made the traumatic mistakes that they have started changing the way they want the city should be, including Melbourne, New York, Chong Qing etc... and there is images of Ho Chi Minh City.
"The Danish architect and professor Jan Gehl has studied human behavior in cities through 40 years. He has documented how modern cities repel human interaction, and argues that we can build cities in a way, which takes human needs for inclusion and intimacy into account."
I got a double pass and went to watch this movie last night at ACMI. For those who are interested in urbanisation, city life ... should watch it!
