Open Air Cinema »Monobloc« with film director Hauke Wendler | SPECIAL (DE)

Please note: Due to bad weather forecast the screening will take place in the Depot Deli (Vitra Schaudepot).

The so-called »monobloc« chair made of cheap white plastic is the world’s most widely used piece of furniture, it transcends national borders and social boundaries. Affordable and ubiquitous, it is a true example of global design, for good or for bad. The documentary »Monobloc« will be screened in front of the Vitra Schaudepot and tells this chair’s fascinating story: from its commercial breakthrough in the 1980s to global manufacturing networks, from cultural appropriations to ecological problems. Prior to the screening, award-winning director Hauke Wendler will talk about his experiences during the making of his film.
