Helvetica, Gary Hustwit's iconic documentary about typography, graphic design and global visual culture, looks at the proliferation of one typeface and the way type affects our lives. It is a cinematic exploration of urban spaces in major cities and the type that inhabits them, and a fluid discussion with renowned designers about their work, the creative process, and the choices and aesthetics behind their use of type. Helvetica encompasses the worlds of design, advertising, psychology, and communication, and invites us to take a second look at the thousands of words we see every day.
