THE HUMAN SCALE - UK PREMIERE

Andreas M. Dalsgaard / 2012 / Denmark / 83'

Sat 22 June / 17:00 / Bloomsbury Theatre

Nominated for Best City Film Award

Do modern cities repel human interaction and how can planners across the globe address the intrinsic human need for inclusion and intimacy? Following Danish architect and professor Jan Gehl, the film examines lives in the mega-cities of 2013, discovering enchanting and problematic real-life stories. Throughout the film thinkers, architects and urban planners across the globe question our assumptions about modernity and explore what happens when we put people at the heart of our planning.

Panel discussion with Anna Mansfield (Publica) and Jeff Risom (Gehl Architects)

Presented in partnership with Publica
