  11. The Life of a City: A new documentary looks to urban planning to solve tomorrow's problems

    If you're optimistic about our chances of tackling the big challenges facing humanity in the 21st century &mdash; poverty, overpopulation, the environment, the fair allocation of political power &mdash; then you're likely to feel good about the state of cities. After all, over 50 percent of the world's population now lives in cities, and experts expect that number to soar to something like 70 percent by the middle of this century. If the aforementioned problems are to be solved, their solutions will probably be found in an urban context. Cities consume 75 percent of world energy, so a small improvement in urban power usage can have a huge effect. <em>Urbanized</em>, a new feature-length documentary by filmmaker Gary Hustwit (<em>Helvetica</em>, <em>Objectified</em>), explores the world of contemporary urban design, showcasing how city planning is likely to shape the ways we live and think about shared communal space well into the future. (The film premieres in Hartford this week.) Whether we have good reason to be optimistic is a question left unanswered by the documentary.
