Boldizsar CR Director teamed up with Paul Rowland (Creative Director) to produce a memorable Fashion Film commissioned by Premier Model Management.
COTC is a moral story about young people’s challenges when following their dreams in the Big City.
Facing alienation and financial hardships often can lead to bad decisions in life. In this film we were dramatising all these issues through fashion, filming methods, music and by using a wonderful dialog between copper and criminal. A particular conversation taken from Cry of the City, a true masterpiece of the 40’s.
Director’s Statement
Cry of the City is a multi layered, moral tale in a fashion context. Instead of giving answers it’s more about raising questions. A celebration of being different, but also an expression of feelings possibly emerging from being alienated for real or imagined reasons.
