Film: Gender roles reversed in French short film gone viral, Oppressed Majority There’s a reason why this French film has gone viral, and that’s because it’s bloody brilliant. A perfect example of a very simple idea executed to perfection, director Eleonore Pourriat has taken us to Paris where we follow a man around his normal day. As he goes about his chores the realisation slowly creeps in that this guy isn’t just a house-husband, he’s living in a world where the role of men and women has been switched. We watch him deal with prejudice, be sexually abused verbally and physically, and struggle in a relationship which he has little to no control over.

This Gorgeous Ad From Diesel Is Packed With Flaws, and It Regrets Nothing – Adweek There’s a gritty, glamorous, give-no-fucks beauty about not only being imperfect … but flaunting it with abandon. That’s the refreshing message behind “Go With the Flaw,” a short film created by Publicis Italia for Diesel. You’ve got sweaty bodies, incomplete roads, roughed-up cars, poorly cut film. And amid all that, there’s a menagerie of weird human beauty—freckled bodies with faded tattoos, braces, unibrows with a hint of lady ‘stache (à la Frida), spasmodic movement, cross-eyed women. It’s all framed in a world that perhaps suits the times—corroded, crumbling, riddled with poverty.
