Our take

A contemplative landscape film, Schindler’s Houses surveys the work of modernist architect Rudolf M. Schindler. The twelfth in Heinz Emigholz’s “Photography and Beyond” series, this stimulating study in space and form examines the chaotic relationship between functionality and environmental context.
