The power of architecture is explored with subtlety and nuance in Emotional Architecture 1959, a film centering on the courtship of two philosophy students in Madrid. Director León Siminiani investigates how design decisions affect the daily lives of everyone in the city, regardless of socioeconomic status or political affiliation. Architecture opens up the door to the characters’ relationship and influences their lives in ways even they do not totally understand.
