World Premiere Screening!tells the little-known story of five ground-breaking architects and designers who ignited a Modern design revolution from the least likely place–colonial New Canaan, CT. “The Harvard Five” as they became known–Philip Johnson, John Johansen, Landis Gores, Eliot Noyes, and Marcel Breuer–was fueled by a sense of hope and optimism in the wake of WWII, but their Modern ideals and avant-garde designs were met with shock by the locals in this traditional town who did not understand these pioneers–or their ”Kleenex box” houses.

Nevertheless, the Harvard 5 found New Canaan's wooded, rolling hills to be the perfect canvas for experimentation with Bauhaus ideals in design and architecture. From there, they introduced an intellectual movement that changed the landscape of this New England community forever and resonated worldwide.

Through interviews with the spouses, family, clients, and biographers of The Harvard 5, this film weaves together the fascinating personal and professional stories of these architects and designers whose risk-taking would define American Modernism in the 20th–century.
