Design Indaba Online FilmFest
Through the end of October, Design Indaba is hosting an online film festival, featuring 10 short films from the Focus Forward series. Focus Forward gives filmmakers three minutes to tell the stories of “innovative people who are reshaping the world through act or invention.” Topics range from bionic eyes to invisible bike helmets to cutting edge “shit management” (see Meet Mr. Toilet). The film clip above is from The Landfill by acclaimed director Gary Hustwit and Jessica Edwards.
