Seen+Noted: Lacoste’s crocodile Inside

Like in the two previous Lacoste productions from BETC Paris, this film features a couple. However this time the love story is less idealized and romanticised. On the contrary, the film takes its departure in a fight and we see a couple on the verge of tearing itself apart.

 

In the film words that can’t be taken back are said and a metaphoric gap is created between the man and the woman. As their home and the entire building collapses and crumbles into pieces around them, they suddenly realize that they have gone too far, and they take a brave leap back towards each other.

The scene is intensified by the spectacular stunts and décor, in a powerful illustration of their desperate fight to not give up on one another and their values. L’Hymne à l’amour by Edith Piaf reinforces the intensity and emotion of this film. The talent of the two awarded actors Oulaya Amamra and Kevin Azaïs help bring a truly cinematic feeling, under the direction of MEGAFORCE, a young French director’s collective.

With the Crocodile Inside campaign, Lacoste suggests a vision of elegance that is more dynamic and more real, put to the test of life and which resonates with our time more than ever.
