Join the Architects League of Northern New Jersey for our third year at the FLOW Green Film Festival, an annual event sponsored by the Environmental Commissions of Franklin Lakes, Oakland and Wyckoff. We will be screening Microtopia by Jesper Wachtmeister. Microtopia explores how architects, artists and ordinary problem-solvers are pushing the limits to find answers to their dreams of portability, flexibility – and of creating independence from “the grid”. Modern nomads, homeless people, people in stress, people in need of privacy or seclusion. We hear about the personal reasons behind the dwellings, and to see how they actually work. On the sidewalk, on rooftops, in industrial landscapes and in nature we will see and feel how these abodes meet the dreams set up by their creators. Microtopia deals with a contemporary urgent ideas that are addressed, and solved, in a very surprising way. Immediately following the film there will be a panel discussion that distills themes from the film and relates them to both larger trends in architecture and practical ways to apply them in our local communities.
