Directed by Vineet Radhakrishnan , 2016, India, 57 minutes, English 

Renowned as a pioneer of cost-effective design, and for his novel brickwork, Laurie Baker’s humanitarian architecture refused to be boring. Baker tells his story, while giving detailed tours of built works. He attributes his holistic ethos to an unusual set of life experiences: an encounter with Mahatma Gandhi; caring for lepers during the war; and time spent building hospitals in remote Himalayan villages. He advised governments on housing policy, and founded COSTFORD, the Centre of Science and Technology for Rural Development. In 1992 he was awarded the Roll of Honour by the United Nations.
