Austrian-born and educated, R.M. Schindler laid the foundation for what is now considered the California lifestyle of indoor-outdoor living. This documentary explores his richly complex work, with its influences from turn of the 20th century Vienna, Frank Lloyd Wright, and the pueblos of Taos. It investigates Schindler’s philosophy of Space Architecture as contrasted with the International Style that ruled modern architecture during most of his life. The film reexamines Schindler’s complicated relationship with his mentor Frank Lloyd Wright and his rival Richard Neutra, asking key questions about the importance of domestic architecture in creating a national culture and as a living entity that shapes humanity. Schindler Space Architect affirms the singular genius of one man and the eternal challenge every artist faces to stay true to their vision and leave a lasting impact.
