The fashion film, although without dialogue has rich and evocative music and brings out the a powerful example of sisterhood and strength. “In the film, characters arrive at the door of a friend in need, bringing something of themselves,” explains director DuVernay. “Eventually, we witness our heroine ready to walk through the door on her own. The door in the film represents a pathway to who we are, with clothing as a symbolic metaphor for the heroine’s journey of healing.
The Italian brand’s Spring/Summer 2013 collection looks absolutely gorgeous on the women in the film complimenting the luscious cinematography and stunning spatial settings.
