In this first episode of the seven-part film collaboration between award-winning director Gus Van Sant (Drugstore Cowboy, My Private Idaho, Elephant) and Gucci Creative Director Alessandro Michele, we follow the lead Silvia during her eccentric morning routine in Rome, which includes a scene in which, to the rhythm of a Billie Eilish song, she throws a dress from the balcony (from the first Gucci show by Alessandro Michele, from the Fall/Winter 2015 women’s line). Silvia is seen going through the mail, which includes some colorful Gucci show invitations, plus a mysterious brochure, and is then distracted by a television talk by writer and philosopher Paul B. Preciado until an unexpected visitor arrives. At the same time, in another room, a music group rehearses a song that Kim Gordon wrote for this miniseries.

The seven episodes will be released daily through the course of the festival as an exclusive broadcast on GucciFest.com, gradually revealing the collection day by day.
