During the twilight of his career, legendary Chicago architect Louis Sullivan--called the 'Father of Modernism' --constructed the 8 banks that are showcased in this unique documentary. Collectively referred to as Sullivan's Jewel Boxes, these banks are located in ordinary small towns across America's heartland. All appear solid, like cathedrals of capitalism, yet they are also discreetly ornate, which makes them stand out among their flat, Midwestern surroundings. Directed by Heinz Emigholz, this quirky documentary subtly conveys the power of Sullivan's style, which inspired Frank Lloyd Wright and the architects of the Prairie School.
