Antonio Cruz and Antonio Ortiz, Kristian Gullichsen, Jacques Herzog and Pierre de Meuron, Hans Kollhoff, Jean Nouvel and Eduardo Souto de Moura. Narration by Kenneth Frampton.

Produced at roughly the same time as The New Modernists 9 American Architects, this film examines an equally interesting selection of European architects. Critic Kenneth Frampton sees this group of architects, working from Seville to Finland, understanding and interacting with the ideas and structures of Aalto, Saarinen and Mies to form a confident new European identity.
