Trailer for the documentary Lutah.
Lutah explores the life of a little-known architect who left a big legacy. Initially eclipsed by her male contemporaries in the early 20th century, Lutah Maria Riggs navigated her way through the male-centric world of architecture and brought a freshness to the established architectural styles of Southern California.
Riggs blazed a trail for women, relying on the courage of her convictions and a hint of eccentricity. She pursed her passions and created a life of independence, an exceptional choice for a woman at that time.
The film reveals a side of Lutah Maria Riggs that has gone unnoticed, including photos and journal entries from her personal collection, along with candid interviews. With stunning tours of some of Santa Barbara’s most iconic structures and a rare glimpse of private homes, LUTAH sheds light on a true Santa Barbara treasure.
