Spots in Shots explores a selection of little-known but fascinating short films made in Europe and the US between 1990 and 2017 that tell stories about architecture and urban development. Based on interviews with the filmmakers, the book asks how cinema can stir public interest in the oeuvres of architects.

Among the numerous cinematic gems discussed here are John Smith's Blight (1996); Kibwe Tavares and Factory Fifteen's Jonah (2012); Assembly Studios' Fort Dunlop Green (2004); The Neighbourhood's Saxton Leeds (2008); Imagen Subliminal's El Espinar House (2013); Squint/Opera's Post Barnsley (2003); Jem Cohen & Luc Sante's Le bled (Buildings in a Field) (2009); Gabriel Kogan & Pedro Kok's Casa Redux (2014); and Jordi Bernad & 15-L Films' Hic Sunt Leones (2013).
