Futuro

Mika Taanila FI, 1998, 29', 35 mm

Futuro is a journey back in time to our recent futuristic past. It's a documentary about the rise and fall of the plastic Futuro house, the story of a "Space Age" utopia that almost came true. Documentary turns the history of this forgotten milestone in Finnish design into a story full of international colour and drama. It traces the development of Suuronen's "purely mathematical idea" into a multipurpose commodity which is eventually destroyed by time.
