To tell Cartier is to cross the mirror of the futile to go towards the precious, from coquetry to provocation, from chic minimalism to excessive extravagance. Telling Cartier is also starting from a private story to speak sideways about more than 160 years of French history. The film will interweave the historical landmarks of the House, leave the museum, unearth archives, play on anachronism by telescoping eras; to revive these precious objects, and to open the chests; present them on the body and the skin, sensual support and final destination of a jewel. Gorgeous.

Made in Italy 1951-2014

Studios: Arte France, Slow Production, Anele
Release Date: 2015
Duration: 0h53
From the dolce vita of the 1950s to the globalization of the 2000s, a history of Italy told through its fashion. With the voice of Marisa Berenson.
Always synonymous with elegance and quality, made in Italy has propelled Italian fashion into pop culture and revolutionized global fashion, inventing bling, supermodels and luxury as an art of living. Yet Italian fashion is a recent creation, born in the early 1950s from the will of a few industrialists encouraged by buyers in American stores, too dependent on Parisian fashion houses. Just out of the Second World War, the weakened country will use fashion to establish a mythical mixture of elegance, sophistication and good-natured vulgarity that will delight buyers around the world.
“Dura vita”
Exploring the intersecting stories of various designers including the Fontana sisters, Valentino, Nino Cerruti, Miuccia Prada (etc.), director Jean Lauritano paints a colorful portrait of post-war Italy. Rich in drama and scandal, the epic mixes Renaissance influences and pop culture against a backdrop of lightning rises and exacerbated competition, such as the mythical rivalry between Giorgio Armani and Gianni Versace. Between archival footage and exclusive interviews with fashion greats, a moving evocation of a world in perpetual reinvention.
