Film Description:

“IF HE COULD, WHY COULDN’T THEY” is a fashion film born on set for KidSuper’s newest collection “THE BOY WHO JUMPED THE MOON”. KidSuper is a Brooklyn-based label known for blurring the lines between fashion, art, and performance. Built around monumental, hand-painted canvases used as immersive backdrops, the original shoot already felt theatrical. Director Joachim Spruijt saw a narrative world forming in real time and decided to capture it on film.
