Dream Big: Engineering Our World

Documentary42 min

Jeff Bridges narrates a documentary about the ideas, people, and problem-solving behind major engineering feats, from the Great Wall of China and record-breaking skyscrapers to underwater robots, solar cars, and sustainable city design. Moving between historic landmarks and modern technology, the film looks at how engineers work within harsh environments, physical limits, and everyday needs. The focus stays on the process as much as the finished structures, tracing the creativity, planning, and persistence required to build systems meant to support larger, more connected lives.
