In a captivating confluence of fashion and film, Blurry Moon emerges as a stunning audiovisual experience, co-produced by Saint Laurent and Because Music. Directed by the visionary, talented Anthony Vaccarello, this music video marks his directorial debut and features the ethereal talents of Charlotte Gainsbourg, who wrote and performed the haunting soundtrack alongside co-producer SebastiAn.
With Blurry Moon, Vaccarello dives deeper into his multifaceted creative dialogue, seamlessly intertwining music with his avant-garde vision for Saint Laurent, a trailblazer in the realm of cinematic exploration. Set against the iconic backdrop of Mulholland Drive in Los Angeles, this project unveils a new dimension of Vaccarello’s artistic universe.
The narrative unfolds as Gainsbourg takes the helm of a car, allowing her mind to wander amid the picturesque yet surreal landscape. The journey transcends mere transportation, transformed into a metaphorical exploration of absence and memory, enveloped in an atmosphere that melds both intimacy and grandeur. Vaccarello’s directorial eye conjures an evocative homage to the enchanting fantasies of Hollywood, inspired by luminaries such as David Lynch and composer Angelo Badalamenti.
As the vehicle glides through the Hollywood Hills, the extended sequence encapsulates a raw emotional landscape where the quintessential elegance of Saint Laurent harmonises with the radiant melancholy of Gainsbourg’s performance. Blurry Moon transcends traditional fashion storytelling, revealing the poetic intersection of art and design that defines the ethos of Saint Laurent. With this project, the boundary between style and cinema blurs, inviting viewers to lose themselves in a world of poignant dreams and shimmering illusions.
