Una Giacca (a Jacket), the short film created for the first edition of Armani/Laboratorio, is the result of an intensive workshop dedicated to film students. Nine exceptional mentors selected the students and guided them throughout the process, from theoretical and practical lessons to the shooting and final editing of the short film. This work explores Giorgio Armani’s iconic garment through a blend of black-and-white and colour, in which the past overlaps with the present.

In a lagoon suspended in time, legend has it that sooner or later every inhabitant loses the toenail of their right big toe.
