Yes, it’s about the font. And more.
Helvetica is a feature-length independent film about typography, graphic design and global visual culture. The film was shot in high-definition on location in the United States, England, the Netherlands, Germany, Switzerland, France and Belgium.
The film premiered at the South by Southwest Film Festival in 2007, and has been gaining increasing exposure since it aired on PBS’s Independent Lens program in fall 2008.
Here’s a preview. More information about the film can be found here.

I want to see it! On a lighter side: I wonder what would happen if fonts had their own conference… Hmm…. http://www.collegehumor.com/video:1823766

Good flick! I miss Helvetica Neue 55, 75, and 95! We were such friends for so long.
