Somebody (by Miranda July) - Miu Miu Womens' Tales #8

Have you ever found it impossible to say something, face to face, to someone you know, someone you love? The words just won't come out? A new messaging service, SOMEBODY, by Miranda July could help. It's the star of her film for Miu Miu Womens' Tales, the eighth commission in the acclaimed short-film series by women directors who critically celebrate femininity in the 21st century. This latest addition to Womens' Tales showcases Miranda July's unique ability to capture the strange tenderness of contemporary relationships. SOMEBODY takes our endless hunger for communication, technology, avatars and outsourcing, and blends it into what seems to be a surreal near-future — but it's not. It's right now. In close collaboration with Miu Miu, July worked with a team of developers to create this radical and complex app; when the movie ends we're invited to visit somebodyapp.com to send or deliver our first message.
