Text




Architecture and cinema understood as transfers, from systems of ideas to material structures. Both as supports for unstable and diffuse structures, models that move on different scales of the real. The film studies the processes of transfer, transformation and hybridisation in the context of the project of modernity in Latin America. Taking as a case study the history of PREVI, an experimental housing project in Lima, projected in the late sixties with the utopian zeitgeist, it brought together the architectural avant-garde of the time. Built at an early stage, interrupted by a coup d’état and radically transformed over time, the project brought together the most radical architectural avant-garde of the time in Lima.
