MDWFF: Mexity
Australian Premiere
With 23 million inhabitants, Mexico City ranks among the five biggest metropolises in the world but the city faces major problems: increasing heat, water shortages, serious air pollution, earthquakes and the social consequences of decades of neoliberal policy. As the city becomes more urbanized, initiatives to improve the urban environment are needed.
It is in this political and cultural melting pot that the filmmakers search for promising architectural projects. They uncover an optimistic and forward-thinking city, innovating in public spaces, social housing, upcycling, and productive spaces. This is Mexico City.
