The Commercial Anti-Commercial Narrative of American Adolescence

This video from Hedi Slimane for e-commerce site thecorner.com, "I Love U.S.A.," is homage to American adolescence from the flowing blonde hair, pom-poms and sparkles to the breezing American flag, worn Converses and cutoffs. It's a modern-day Midsummer Night's Dream visual romance that gets away from commercial advertising, and the stills are equally compelling. Check it.
