The first time I saw, in Abitare, the story of Guadalupe Acedo, the housekeeper of OMA's House in Bordeaux, France designed for a wheelchair-bound client, I was intrigued by the focus on the housekeeper and the chores she must do to keep the house and its well-known mechanisms in a reasonable state after the occupant's death.
Koolhaas Houselife, the film by Ila B�ka and Louise Lemoine that presents the story of Guadalupe is part of an upcoming exhibition at the Storefront for Art and Architecture, On Mock-ups, Home Videos and Housekeeping: a video exhibition in 3 parts, running from March 25 to May 3 (the Guadalupe portion will run from April 3 to the exhibition's close).
Here's a couple trailers from the filmmaker's blog.
