In his new documentary titled Concrete History, John Wilson seeks to explore this material and its effects on human life in greater depth. This documentary is somewhat of a continuation of Wilson's unique storytelling style that he showcased in his previous program How To with John Wilson. In that program, Wilson took an unconventional look at the daily lives of New Yorkers, and now in this documentary, he turns his attention to concrete.
Searching for Inspiration
In Concrete History, Wilson expresses a sense of aimlessness after the conclusion of his previous program, embarking on a search for inspiration and new work. He examines the inappropriate business proposals he receives and, recalling past accolades, seeks a new path. This search ultimately leads to the idea of creating a documentary about concrete.

Adventure in the World of Concrete
In this documentary, Wilson explores the history of concrete and its applications in human life. He travels to Rome and showcases examples of ancient Roman concrete. Additionally, he attends a concrete conference where he is required to sign an agreement ensuring that he will not view this important material negatively. Along the way, he meets various characters, each with their own unique stories and experiences.
Among these characters is a man named Jack, whom Wilson meets while making the documentary. Jack is a dock musician who approaches Wilson after losing his fiancée, and the two become friends during this difficult time. The story of their lives and the human relationships depicted in this documentary illustrate the power of concrete as a symbol of human connections.
Overall, Concrete History not only provides information about this ubiquitous material but also examines human relationships and unforgettable stories that may easily be overlooked. With his unique ability to connect with others, Wilson reminds us that every story can lead to a new world.
