Overview

• Prada released the auteur-led short this week as the latest chapter of its Galleria campaign.
• The project is the first collaboration between Johansson and Lanthimos, and Lanthimos’s first work with Prada.
• Johansson performs multiple personas undertaking surreal rituals across a metropolis, using the Galleria as the vessel for collected elements.
• Lanthimos wrote the film’s monologue and photographed the campaign’s still imagery.
• The release extends Prada’s filmmaker-driven strategy after Jonathan Glazer and Xavier Dolan and arrives ahead of the brand’s Sept. 25 Milan Fashion Week show.
