It seems an odd choice for a film shot amoungst the blue waters and sunny skies of the Maldives… But the black and white of Katja Hentschel’s film Paradise Serenade works in that it feels more like the desaturated echo of a summer memory than a glossy fashion film. In the film Bonnie Strange enjoys solitude at the glorious Velassaru Resort, a holiday away from people as much as away from daily life.
The strength of the video, though, largely comes down to the choice of soundtrack: Nancy Sinatra’s moody, lilting rendition of Ain’t No Sunshine.
Watch the video above.
