About this event

Initiated by Berlin and Zurich design practice TOPOTEK 1 with filmmakers Ila Bêka and Louise Lemoine, The World in a Square looks at the life of Superkilen in Copenhagen’s diverse Nørrebro neighborhood. Over a summer, its portrait of residents considers how public-space design can bring people together across different backgrounds. The 72-minute French/Italian film is in English and Danish with English subtitles. Part of the Architecture & Design Film Festival. Tickets are $17 general admission or $13 for students, before any booking fees.

Why it belongs on GermanEvents

The film was initiated by Berlin/Zurich landscape-architecture practice TOPOTEK 1 with Bêka & Lemoine for the practice’s 30th anniversary, focusing on its Superkilen public-space work in Copenhagen. This is a German design-practice connection, not a claim that the French/Italian film or Danish setting is German.
