La Capsula
Italian millionaire Moritz Craffonara dreams of 'a bed under the stars'.
He asks his friend Ross Lovegrove for help and the british designer constructs something that nobody thought was possible: a floating space capsule on top of a 2100 meter mountain in the heart of the Alps.
The project was named „Alpine Capsule“ and gained media attention all over the world. But eventually it was something way bigger: It became Moritz‘ monument.
A documentary about the possibilities of modern technology and the human fear of being forgotten.
