CATHEDRALS OF CULTURE

Directors:  Michael Glawogger, Wim Wenders, Michael Madsen, Karim Ainouz , Margreth Olin and Robert Redford

Cathedrals of Culture is a groundbreaking film project in stunning 3D and executive produced by Wim Wenders. The films allow six iconic and very different buildings to speak for themselves. They examine human life from the unblinking perspective of a manmade structure. Six acclaimed filmmakers bring their own visual style and artistic approach to the project. Buildings, they show us, are material manifestations of human thought and action. Cathedrals of Culture explores how each of these landmarks reflects our culture and guards our collective memory.
