How can cities and their architectures face climate emergencies in the face of exponential tragedy, beyond construction strategies and their technicalities? <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Faced with such uncertainties, cinema\u2014and culture in general\u2014presents itself as a fundamental tool for denunciation, raising questions that challenge everyone. But not only that. Sequenced moving images are fertile ground for imagining other futures, reinventing social dynamics, broadening the debate on consumption, and truly agreeing on a balance between humans, built space, and the environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The challenges are stacked up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This film screening, aligned with the curatorial thinking of the 14th BIAsp \u2013 Extremes: Architectures for a Hot World, seeks to critically provoke the public through a selection of feature and short films, both fictional and documentary, Brazilian and non-Brazilian, framing human rights, traditional knowledge, science and experimental constructions, extraction of natural resources, preservation and climate justice as central characters.

THE INSTITUTE OF WEATHER MODIFICATION<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Documentary, short film, 11 minutes Synopsis<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Los Angeles' water system is among the largest and most controversial infrastructures in the world. Tracing its trajectory\u2014from aqueducts and reservoirs to ultraviolet light treatment plants, hot springs, lakes, and cloud seeding stations\u2014the film reveals the hidden geographies and infrastructures that sustain the city. By exploring climate change as part of this network, it reveals how human intervention in the climate is deeply intertwined with the control and survival of water in a desert metropolis.
