Storyline

Plot Summary

Oozing with exotic mysticism, seamlessly blending the modern Shanghai with the old, David Lynch's promotion short film for the French luxury fashion house, Dior, follows an impeccably dressed, dark-eyed woman as she enters her hotel room. Against the backdrop of the iconic Pearl Tower, and the mesmerising music of a passionate 1920s tango, all of a sudden, a velvety, indigo-blue Mini Lady Dior Bag, Dior's epitome of modern elegance and timeless beauty, appears out of thin air. Now, as the refined handbag's pale-gold metal signature evokes nostalgic memories of a short-lived whirlwind romance, dreamy flashbacks leave a bitter-sweet aftertaste. Who is behind this intricate mystery? Above all, what is inside the bag? Written by Nick Riganas
