About This Movie

This Is What the Future Looked Like dives into Buckminster Fuller's visionary world, showcasing his geodesic domes as more than just structures—they’re ideas that challenge our understanding of space and sustainability. The documentary maintains a contemplative pacing, allowing viewers to absorb Fuller's philosophies and ambitions. There’s something intriguing about how it captures the tension between his optimistic visions and the reality of the times he lived in. The visuals are striking, with those iconic dome shapes standing out against various landscapes, almost like they’re inviting conversation. It’s a fascinating slice of architectural history that encourages a deeper reflection on our future. The lack of a well-known director adds a layer of mystery, as if the film is a discovery rather than a commercial product.
