Mau is the first-ever, feature-length documentary about the design visionary Bruce Mau. The film explores the untold story of his unlikely rise in the creative world, and ever-optimistic push to expand the boundaries of design. We tell the story of his incredible career - from Mecca to MOMA, from Guatemala to Coca Cola - and his most important project yet: his own life.
“If you want to see a hopeful film that will make you rethink how you see the future, see MAU.” - Unseen Films
"MAU is a rare treat. It will, or should, push you to push your own boundaries.” - Northern Stars
“MAU is a strong and defining directorial debut.” - Cinematic Faves
“What makes MAU so lively and engaging is Bruce Mau himself and the style of the directors - a fun, kinetic style that is as outsized as its subject’s personality.” - Film Threat
