In the 1960s, Copenhagen was an industrial city ruled by cars. Today, it is among the best places to live. The documentary captures how visionary urbanist Jan Gehl and his talented partner David Sim transformed a neglected city into a place for people — with pedestrian zones, cycling paths and vibrant public squares. Through interviews with architects and planners, it shows that the principles of a “city for people” are universal and can serve as inspiration for Slovakia as well. The film is an inspiring story about the power of public space and a testament that such a transformation is possible in any city in the world. After the screening, the filmmakers Igor Bubeník and Jakub Otčenáš will be joined in discussion by Zuzana Duchová (editor-in-chief of Koncept magazine).
