WHAT’S IT ABOUT?

At a fashion shoot in a London warehouse, an eccentric photographer (Phoenix), his overly eager assistant (Aroussi), a dishevelled make-up artist (Steel) and a bored model (Bonfrer) find themselves in a bizarre turn of events, especially when one of them suddenly disappears…

IN ONE SENTENCE, WHY SHOULD YOU BE EXCITED?

This biting satire of the fashion world takes heavy cues from the surreal stylings of David Lynch, which is needed for the pure and entertaining chaos that it exhumes.
