The clown, the bearded woman and the tamer. The three members of the Felina circus go through a bad patch related to their alter-egos. The Clown is sad because her boyfriend has left her and throws pies in her face at all functions. The Bearded Woman cries because her boyfriend has found a girl with a better beard and the Animal Tamer suffers from depression after finding herself imprisoned in a small caravan that takes her nowhere.

DIRECTOR’S STATEMENT:
My aim in creating the fashion film for Alvarickoke's new collection was to immerse myself in the unique world the designer had crafted within his collection – one inspired by the circus and its intriguing cast of characters – and bring it to life through the cinematic lens. To accomplish this, I collaborated with Álvaro Álamo (Alvarickoke) to curate a selection of looks.
With these distinctive outfits in hand, we embarked on the task of envisioning how these ensembles could serve as the basis for circus-inspired personas and narratives. Given my long-standing friendship with Álvaro, I had an intimate understanding of the distinctive personalities these characters should embody.
Alvarickoke, as a brand, is known for its playful yet poignant messages, often tinged with a touch of melancholy. It seemed fitting to me that beneath the vibrant circus exterior, these characters could harbor hidden struggles and complexities.
Álvaro had been collaborating with Drag queens in his previous collections, so we searched for Drag performers who already possessed a stage presence akin to the roles we were crafting for the film. This gave rise to the characters of the Clown, the Bearded Lady, and the Elephant Tamer.
Additionally, we felt that blending these scenes with 2D draft-style animations would inject a sense of whimsy and provide a thematic link between the one-minute segments that comprise the narrative.
