“if…” was commissioned and screened as the opening film for the World Architects Congress in Seoul 2017. The film explores the creativity of a group of children from all over the world as they respond to the cityscapes they inhabit. In asking what they would do differently and how they express themselves creatively we go on a fantastic journey of the imagination, that touches on many different aspects of their lives.
