Fifty Shades of Greige is a mockumentary short following a typical day at the minimalist New York concept shop GREIGE. Its proprietor, Zed (Carlos Soto), muses on the nature of concept-as-commodity as he drives unworthy, uncomprehending customers out of his store. Finally, near closing time, a loyal client appears, in crisis: She buys Zed’s concept, lock, stock and barrel.
Produced in association with NOWNESS.
Premiered at the 2016 Madrid Fashion Film Festival. Nominated for Best Fashion Film & Best Script.
