I Am Thinking of Pierre Cardin (2018)

SCAD-produced short film I am Thinking of Pierre Cardin is not a biography. It is a reverie - an emotional and artistic impression of the iconic designer. Recalling and conjuring moments, debuts, colors and textures, critical reactions, collections and breakthroughs, the narrator speaks English with a rich French accent. Maybe she is a longtime patron of Cardin; maybe she's real; maybe she's a vibrant figment of our imaginations. What her words do not tell us, photographs and film do. We see Cardin's 1960s explorations of space-age shapes and materials, iconic motion picture clips and French landscapes. It might even inspire the musing, "I am thinking of Pierre Cardin."
