BIG TIME Screens February 2nd – 4th at Webster University

BIG TIME directed by Kaspar Astrup Schröder screens Friday February 2nd through  Sunday February 4th at Webster University’s Moore Auditorium (470 East Lockwood). The movie starts each evening at 7:30pm.

Danish architect Bjarke Ingels is known as one of the world’s most inventive and sought-after architects, named to Time’s list of the World’s 100 Most Influential People and called “one of architecture’s biggest stars” by the Wall Street Journal. Ingels is a creative and influential force in modern building design. Big Time follows Ingels over 5 years as he struggles to finish his biggest project so far, Two World Trade Center, and shares Ingels’ creative processes along with the endless compromises that his work entails. The film also captures Ingels’ struggle with a health crisis that causes him to reflect on his priorities and threatens his success. The film is in English and Danish with English subtitles.

The critics love BIG TIME:

“A film for casual lovers of modern architecture and aficionados, both.”

Ken Eisner at Georgia Straight says:

“Throughout this remarkable profile of radically imaginative Bjarke Ingels, the globetrotting Dane struggles to explain his addiction to building things that haven’t been seen before.”

and Glenn Sumi at NOW Toronto claims:

“Design nerds will geek out over this glimpse at one of the world’s fastest-rising architects.”
