This 78mins film tracks the success of the world's leading architects, Norman Foster, and his continuing quest to improve the quality of life through design. It includes interview not only with Norman himself but also from colleagues, friends and other colleagues ranging from artists such as Anish kappor, architects including former partner Richard Rogers to U2 musician Bono.
For me, there were two interesting aspects that was covered by the film. The first thing was his journey from design student to pioneering architect and second thing was Normans ecological and sustainabillity ethos. Indeed, his buildings have provided revolutionary ideas about sustainability issues. Most importantly and ground breaking though is his work on Masdar City, the world’s first and only self-sustainable city in Abu Dhabi, relying completely on its own resources and renewable energy.
The film is so beautiful and captivate to watch that I felt the run time is too short.

After watching the film, I wanted to meet his work in real world and visited British Museum to see and feel his masterpiece in modern world.
