Carmen for Miu Miu directed by Chloé Sevigny

Looking back at the actress and stand up comedian Carmen Lynch, directed by Chloé Sevigny for Miu Miu Women Tales , a timeless series of short films.

Carmen has a loose, voyeuristic, improvisational mood that reflects Sevigny’s interest, “in making a short-film about process, being a woman, celebrity and ego.It’s about the love of the craft, the love of the art, the repetition of it.” The script developed by Carmen Lynch first writing her own stand-up material and then Sevigny building intuitively around that. “The film captures a lot of who I am,” says Lynch. “When you’re on the road, being alone doesn’t even feel like being alone anymore. A lot of us comedians are introverts, observing and listening.”
