Lucky is a young woman who embarks on an Oz-style adventure into the dreamworld of CAPRICE, her favorite fashion magazine. Director Joanna Hogg’s graduation film, starring a then-unknown 26-year-old Tilda Swinton stretches away from the minimalism that would define her later career. A Technicolor surreal dream paying homage to the legendary Powell & Pressburger’s RED SHOES and cheekily crossing paths with the glam and stardust of its time, in a cartoonish blend of comic touches and posh postures. A zany and zippy journey that delves into the depths of the 80s pop and fashion culture.

“Swinton and Hiddleston make their love story one for the ages.”
– LOS ANGELES TIMES
“Has undoubted panache, and wit to spare, especially when Swinton is in the frame.”
– NEW YORKER
“The best reason to see this film is Swinton and Hiddleston’s achingly sexy double-act as two old, cold souls in still-hot bodies, steadfastly keeping the spark alive even as the world around them slowly snuffs itself out”
– DAILY WIRE
