Bruce Goff was one of the greatest American architects of the 20th century. His unconventional perspective challenged stigmas about the Mid- west's inability to produce innovative work. A peer to Frank Lloyd Wright, his work had a profound influence on the next generation of architects, including Phillip Johnson and Frank Gehry. However, Goff's willingness to explore unprecedented forms often solicited polarized perspectives of his work.

GOFF explores the life of an iconoclast and chronicles the events that lead to the destruction and renewed interest of his memory and dwellings.
