Schindler's Houses April 12, 2008

SCHINDLER'S HOUSES
(2007, Austria/Germany) Directed by Heinz Emigholz
Structured as a series of elegantly composed views in and around some 40 Southern California homes designed by Austrian-born architect Rudolph Schindler, many nestled into the hillsides of Los Feliz and Silverlake, Schindler's Houses is much more than a survey. Emigholz's long takes, subtle edits and hypnotic soundtrack of everyday sounds draw the viewer into Schindler's pioneering modernism and, through them, into a reinvigorated connection to Los Angeles itself.
