"Moriyama-San" - a film by Bêka & Lemoine - has been awarded the 2018 Best Prize at the Arquiteturas Film Festival in Lisbon. Centered around the famous Moriyama House by Pritzker Prize Laureate Ryue Nishizawa, it becomes part of a developing series called ?Living Architectures,? in which the filmmakers aim to ?put into question the fascination with the picture, which covers up the buildings with preconceived ideas of perfection, virtuosity, and infallibility.? In its unique approach, the film ?masterfully combines image, sound, and narrative in a compelling story about a unique character and its relation to his house and music.?
