ABOUT THE FILM:
Mau grew up in the wilderness of Northern Canada without running water. His early life informs much of what he does today. It’s not only about creating beautiful things, it’s about making this planet more beautiful and livable, for everyone. Today the uber optimist Mau applies his design tools to inspire new thinking when it comes to some of the world’s greatest challenges: climate, over population, disease, etc.The film tells the story of his humble beginnings in Canada to his sharp rise to fame in the design space.
A year with Mau will take us across the globe, from Beijing to New York City, to show that design is an agent of change and has the power to shape our world. We begin where we end-in the forest outside of Sudbury,Canada-and his biggest design project to date… his own life.
