A woman alone in her hotel room, torn between its calm and the fear of missing out.
I made this film with the Modame team, on my own initiative: a spec ad I imagined for Chanel. The Chanel pieces you see are not there by chance: this is my vision of how I would film an ad for a Chanel bag. It follows a woman with two sides: one loves her space and the quiet of her hotel room, the other suddenly feels she might be missing something. She takes the bet of a night she knows nothing about, and leaves the room.
Our room at the Hôtel des Peintres, in Paris, was lent to us for one hour, and we had that hour to shoot everything. Every shot had to tell as much of the story as possible.
The film is not commissioned by, or affiliated with, Chanel.
