Miralles

2024 / 90 min / Spain

Director: Maria Mauti

Miralles is a visually striking journey into the life and work of Catalan architect Enric Miralles, whose brilliant mind was taken from the world too soon when he passed away just before his 50th birthday. The film revisits the legacy of a visionary who was only beginning to show the full scope of his genius.

+ Conversation with Architect Arancha González Bernardo, Denegri Bessai Studio Principal Maria Denegri, and Azure Editor-in-Chief Elizabeth Pagliacolo

Søren Pihlmann: Make Materials Matter

2025 / 54 min / Denmark

Directors: Marc-Christoph Wagner and Simon Weyhe

The global construction industry is one of the planet’s most resource-hungry and polluting sectors. But a shift is underway. In recent years, a distinct Danish voice has emerged in the global conversation about how we live, build, and shape our surroundings. At the forefront of this movement is architect Søren Pihlmann, whose projects explore how existing materials can be given new life.

8:30pm

Kensington Market: Heart of the City

2024 / 104 min / Canada

Director: Stuart Clarfield

Kensington Market: Heart of the City is a richly textured portrait of one of Toronto’s most storied neighborhoods. It is an ever-evolving enclave shaped by more than 160 years of immigration, artistry, and individuality. Change is part of its DNA, but today the jarring acceleration of rapid gentrification threatens Kensington Market’s fragile balance.

2025 / 96 min / US
