About This Movie

1960 is an interesting piece, a home movie that feels like a personal diary but shot on super 8mm, which gives it that grainy, nostalgic texture. It captures the essence of Fernando Távora's journey in an almost intimate way, as if you’re flipping through a scrapbook. The pacing is deliberate, allowing you to soak in the atmosphere of the era and the architect's thoughts. What stands out is how the film intertwines architecture with personal reflection, showcasing a unique blend of professional and emotional storytelling. There's something raw about it, almost like you're privy to a private moment in time. If you appreciate documentaries that shy away from flashy production and dive deep into the human experience, this one has its merits.
