The 2007 Sagan National Colloquium
Cities and Suburbs: Life in a Metropolitan World

Title Description Showing Place
“Manufactured Cities” Documentary. In English and Mandarin. 90 Minutes. This film focuses on the incredible estimated migration of 350 million rural Chinese to cities over the next ten years and the impacts this migration is having on the transformation of Chinese urban landscapes. The scale of production and consumption is enormous and it is no wonder that quality control—and the quality of life—comes up short. The photography is stunningly beautiful.
