Point of Origin
(Canadian Premiere) An international tech entrepreneur purchases an impossibly narrow piece of steep mountain slope in Austria, where he grew up. The building site will only allow for a 4-meter-wide house. This challenge sparks the interest of well-known architect Rem Koolhaas, but Rem has not built a private house since his acclaimed House in Bordeaux over 20 years ago. The process was captured by photographer and filmmaker Frans Parthesius, using primarily a simple static security camera. Slowly, the house reveals itself as the film reveals clues about Koolhaas’s process.
