La Claridad is a documentary film about the restoration of a 1924 Spanish Revival house in Palm Beach, Florida. The film explores the history of the house, the neighborhood, and the region.
Dave Simonds directed the film.
Featured at the Sarasota Film Festival and newportFILM Festival.
The research reveals how Spanish Revival architecture, particularly through Mizner’s work, created not just buildings but a comprehensive cultural and social environment that defined Palm Beach’s golden age. The movement’s influence extends beyond architecture into the realm of cultural identity and continues to shape the region’s development today.
