The film follows a single character as he moves slowly through his garden, a private and reflective setting that mirrors the collection’s introspective tone. Dressed in structured cotton tailoring, subtle textures, and grounded hues, the garments are revealed through gesture, stillness, and presence, allowing craftsmanship and form to speak naturally. Shot in Côte d’Ivoire, with natural sound recordings captured in a remote forest near Bouaké, the film reinforces a deep connection to place, time, and slowness, immersing the viewer in a sensory experience that feels both personal and grounded.
