This time round, Creative Director Anthony Vaccarello turns the camera on the behind-the-scenes cinematic titans. All dressed in black, and shot in black and white, the images play with light and shadows in order to come up with silhouettes not easily depicted on screen, a homage to the art of filmmaking.
Almodóvar maintains a self-assured stance, his stoic face is hidden behind thick dark glasses and a furry coat. As the camera pans in, we listen to a tune which mirrors his own theatrics and extravagant plots. The campaign also celebrates the new partnership between Almodóvar and the Saint Laurent house which is producing and costume designing the director’s anticipated Western short film Strange Way of Life starring Pedro Pascal.
