Italian Boi
A foreign girl falls in love with an Italian Boi.
He’s attractive and charismatic, but she realises too soon who she’s dealing with: an ignorant, chauvinist, lazy mama’s boy whose actions are completely driven by the toxic upbringing he’s too dumb to reckon.
Furious, she breaks him into pieces that fly far away and land on various Italian – stereotypical – terrains.
The epilogue shows her trying to put the pieces back together and give him a second chance.
To enrich the visual and complete the story, we generated thousands of pictures in DALL·E, tweaked the queries to get closer to the results we wanted and finally, we hand-picked the images to create stream-of-consciousness sequences and absurd stories about the Italian Boi cultural burden.
Live action, CGI and DALL·E animation.
