April 2, 2021 Vivaldi’s "The Four Seasons: Spring 1" recomposed by Max Richter and Daniel Hope plays as the soundtrack to the film, bringing a liberating yet relaxing mood to the narrative.“The cool breeze blew in from the south,” the narrator continues. “We dived from the front of the boat into the deep blue waters — I swam out from the others.”Illuminated by sunlight, models are dressed in brightly colored Louis Vuitton monogrammed swimwear, denim shorts and leather belts, clutching the collection’s gradient handbags.“Their voices far away in the hot summer air,” the narrator says. “I laid there, floating on my back, in the warm bright sun, looking up at the open sky.”The film ends as the camera zooms in on a young woman’s face, whose eyes are closed and hair is tossing in a slight breeze. Viewers may conclude that this woman is the narrator.
