- Synopsis
- Oscar Niemeyer is one of the greatest architects that the world has ever seen and this documentary, made to coincide with his 100th birthday reveals a truly remarkable man.
  Still working and revealing an amazingly undiminished intellect and physical capacity, Oscar Niemeyer recounts his long life and remarkably prolific output. This included the designing of an entire city, Brasilia, and an astonishing array of eye-catching landmark buildings in Brazil and elsewhere. Highly reflective of the development of modern Brazil, this documentary takes the simple but wholly effective approach of allowing Oscar Niemeyer to speak for himself and his architecture to speak for itself with the aid of some fine camerawork
