Lana del Rey. Short Film. Poolside. Director: Aaron C. Peer.
Poolside, the 2012 short film directed by Aaron C. Peer and starring Lana del Rey, immerses us in a lonely and melancholic universe, where music and images intertwine to create a unique sensory experience in a short film. The film introduces us to Lana del Rey in the role of a young and mysterious woman who wanders around her luxurious home, trapped in a spiral of loneliness and nostalgia.
The aesthetics of the short film are impeccable: Erik Schuessler's photography captures the decadent beauty of the mansion and pool, while Lana del Rey's music, with its characteristic melancholic and ethereal style, envelops the film in a dreamy atmosphere.
Lana del Rey's performance is very good: with her distant gaze and slow, sensual movements, she perfectly conveys the fragility and melancholy of her character. The film does not have a traditional plot, but develops through a series of fragmented images and symbolisms that invite the viewer to interpret their own meaning. Poolside is a work of audiovisual art that explores themes of loneliness, nostalgia and loss. It's a film that will grab you from the start and leave you thinking about it long after you've finished watching it.
"If you like Lana del Rey's music and thought-provoking films, I highly recommend you watch Poolside. It is a unique cinematic experience that will not leave you indifferent.
