Helvetica, Gary Hustwit’s iconic documentary about
typography, graphic design and global visual culture,
looks at the proliferation of one typeface and the way
type affects our lives. It is a cinematic exploration of urban
spaces in major cities and the type that inhabits them,
and a fluid discussion with renowned designers about their
work, the creative process, and the choices and aesthetics
behind their use of type. Helvetica encompasses the worlds
of design, advertising, psychology, and communication,
and invites us to take a second look at the thousands of
words we see every day.
