影片内容介绍
剧情简介
What do Al Gore, the Tower of Babel, science fiction, gothic cathedrals, artichokes and roller coasters have in common? All come together in Malls R US, a feature documentary with a multiplex of critical reflections and revelations on one of North America’s most popular suburban institutions - the enclosed shopping center.
Mixing nostalgia, architectural ambition, pop culture and politics, Malls R US travels from North America, the mall’s origins, to some of its newer hosts - Poland, Japan, India and Dubai. Along the way, the film meets Dead Mall activists mourning the loss of their crumbling hangouts, Sci-Fi guru Ray Bradbury extolling the virtues of getting lost in a mall, a popular mass uprising against malls by shopkeepers in India, and a church gathering contemplating the sacredness of shopping centers.
A new mall in Japan. Some of the world’s most renowned contemporary retail architects and developers explain how malls are the medium through which the 21st century will rebirth decaying cities, inspire monument building, unite mankind, and even help the planet grow green. We’ll see Mother Earth - pushed over to make way for the mall - reconfigured in air-conditioned splendor, through babbling fountains, evergreen trees, and glass ceilings. Religious, environmental and labour critics gaze past security cameras onto the shrinking public space, to ask whether community can ever be born out of food courts and superstores.
Walking among shoppers and workers of many tongues and cultures, Malls R US wonders, “is there only one true language at the mall - the one where money talks?” Ironic, sobering and visually stunning, this surprising documentary offers a trip to the mall like no other.
