Championing Nordic as well as international fashion film talent, the 7th edition of the Copenhagen Fashion Film Festival has come to an end. The peculiarity of this fashion film festival is in the way they showcase the best of contemporary fashion films accompanied by a special selection of old cult films, according to a specific theme each year.
Over the years this event has become an important platform especially for Nordic talent, as an increasing number of directors are looking to gain a better understanding of the fashion film world and connect with its players.
The videos below are my personal pick from the festival; films that stood out to me visually, but also and especially for their ability to engage with the viewer on an emotional level:
Best International Fashion Film: Soul Land directed by Meeto
Best Nordic Talent: Escapism directed by Isac Mørch
Best Idea: Happy Nothing directed by Ian Isak
Best Message: GUCCI X GQ, The performers Act III directed by Albert Moya
Violent Situations ‘AW17 directed by Philip Peng Rosenthal
My Ideal Brothers directed by Héctor Herce & Samuel Cerrudo
