You have to love ‘Aspirational’, this year’s winner for ‘Best Idea + Casting’ at the Berlin Fashion Film Festival. Directed by Matthew Frost + starring Kirsten Dunst, the film perfectly captures the notion of self-absorption with one’s own celebrity, in the form of the infamous selfie, where two girls stop their car after spotting Dunst, ask her to take a selfie with each of them + then run off. The girls are so obsessed in getting ‘likes’ that the roles are reversed in the selfie, where the famous Dunst becomes a famous ‘extra’ while the girls are the true celebrities.
Enjoy!
