I rather enjoyed this documentary romp through some of the more interesting projects being undertaken around the world's cities. From memory, and it's been a few weeks since I watched it now - but projects in South America, North America, Germany and even Brighton in the UK are covered.I particularly liked putting visuals to projects I'd only heard about before eg those of half built housing which enables their occupiers to finish them at their own pace and priorities. And I loved seeing planners and architects in one city put cycling and public transport ahead of the car - on the grounds that more more people used them.
Verdict: Although thematically lacking, this surfaces some interesting stories.
