Effervescent, eclectic and unpredictable, Buckminster Fuller is one of the titans of twentieth-century design. Actively making work for over half a century, Fuller became known more as a universal problem-solver than a designer. Seeking to "do more with less," Fuller used this precept as a guiding principle for innovating and creating objects and ideas that improved the day-to-day quality of human life. Largely told in his own words, this rare documentary captures Fuller at the peak of his creative influence.
