PÖFF post
This film is absolutely brilliant. I saw it as part of PÖFF, but if you have the chance to see it - Go for it. It easily the best documentary I have ever seen. I like the Fashion Cinema programme at PÖFF anyways and I like this sort of classic fashion cinema documentaries too, but this was something totally different and man was it wonderful. I liked the topic of copyright laws and parodying itself, but the fact that it's sort of a comedy documentary makes it so unique and wonderful. Those are not the two things you'd think to combine easily.
I think the storytelling was amazing. To the point where I started to almost wonder if they manipulated the truth to get a more captivating narrative. It was fantastic, fun, clever and everything wrapped up really nicely. It is a classic David and Goliath story and man was it satisfying. One man goes against a giant corporation in his own unique, witty and clever way and doesn't completely fail. Justice prevails! More or less.
Also, to look at this critically - it's a hell of a good advertising for his clothing brand.
But really, it was awesome and it was great to have the main character (you can't really call him an actor when it's a documentary) and the director there as well.
