The film presents the works nominated for the Mies van der Rohe Architecture Prize. The jury, the architects and the finalists talk about their experiences and share their thoughts on the role and opportunities of architecture. From the transformation of an existing monument to the implementation of contemporary new ideas, the designers explain the trains of thought that accompanied the design process and how the buildings evolved in parallel. Fruits of close collaboration with the clients and users, these works represent the current state of European architecture and inspire many thought-provoking conversations at an international level.
