FILM SYNOPSIS:
The video is the director’s cut of a three video installations for Fondazione Furla for the FW 2013 collection of the brand. A film noir, just like in the new FW 2013 collection; absolute black, the icon of a future that’s already here. And then, the frosty elements of a cold, ultra-sophisticated winter: snow, ice, water, together with a subtle note of femininity and elegance which ripples through the images. Each scene is the unreservedly artistic elaboration of a theme in the collection: a wild, elegant Siberian tiger. Drops of water spray off its coat, white spotted with black; they freeze, and they solidify, the twirls of an ice-skater. Her dance, her bright, white skirt and a flower that echoes its shape.
