The concept
(W0)men is a brilliant comedy, had a great idea, a really funny script but we have to work with a tight budget.
To bring this script to life, was important to be very savvy and, in a great collaboration with Tamas- the D.o.P- we decided to keep the naturalism in the “sober” scenes to have a real contrast when the women gone wild, on drugs.
As the different moments were just a psychological perception, we kept the sets in neutral colours, almost boring, using the palette only in details. Meanwhile we’re able to exploring it more strongly in the the contrasting lights for the psychedelic moments.
