Out My Window: Interactive Views From the Global Highrise

Tags: 
Description (in English): 

One highrise. Every view, a different city. This is Out My Window -- one of the world's first interactive 360° documentaries -- about exploring the state of our urban planet told by people who look out on the world from highrise windows. It's a journey around the globe through the most commonly built form of the last century: the concrete-slab residential tower. Meet remarkable highrise residents who harness the human spirit -- and the power of community -- to resurrect meaning amid the ruins of modernism. With more than 90 minutes of material to explore Out My Window features 49 stories from 13 cities, told in 13 languages, accompanied by a leading-edge music playlist.
