Helvetica: A Documentary Film
Maybe I’m a nerd, but I love typography. A few weeks ago I came across the Web site for the new Helvetica Documentary. Unfortunately, there are no showings in Indianapolis, so I’ll have to wait for it to come out on DVD. Viewings in other cities around the world have been sold out. This is a quote from the official site:
“Helvetica is a feature-length independent film about typography, graphic design and global visual culture. It looks at the proliferation of one typeface (which is celebrating its 50th birthday this year) as part of a larger conversation about the way type affects our lives. Helvetica will screen at film festivals, museums, design conferences, and cinemas worldwide, followed by the DVD release this fall.”
Happy Birthday Helvetica!
