American shoe designer STUART WEITZMAN launched his eponymous brand in 1986. The shoes, known for their sophisticated design and comfort, gradually gained attention and are now favored by many celebrities. They are also featured in Hollywood movies and dramas, drawing significant attention from women.

Over the past three seasons, the brand has produced short films as a means of expressing its worldview. Previous films were directed by actor and filmmaker James Franco, filmmaker Balthazar Klarwein, and photographer Nino Muñoz. This time, the first woman to be appointed director is Julia Restoin Roitfeld. She is also known for her diverse activities as a photographer, model, and director of the website 'Romy and the bunnies,' and is the daughter of Carine Roitfeld, former editor-in-chief of French Vogue.

Starring actress Dylan Penn, daughter of Sean Penn



The latest work, titled 'ROCK ROLL RIDE,' was presented in Paris on September 29th. Inspired by the American magazine 'PLAYBOY,' it features a sensual and playful mood. The direction, referencing the techniques of 1960s television series, uses split screens in a collage-like style that is particularly striking.

The film stars actress Dylan Penn, also known as Sean Penn's daughter, and model and actress Poppy Delevingne. In the video, Dylan Penn's motorcycle riding is sensual, and the finale scene featuring the two women in long boots is also memorable. The use of a remix version of Lana Del Rey's 'Ride' for the music is also noteworthy.

We hope you enjoy the brand's world through this short film, which is about two minutes long and evokes a movie trailer.
