"Sometimes you just need the perfect plan to survive"
...is the short plot of the movie by Finnish fashion designer and filmmaker Paola Suhonen. The movie plays in the early 1980s and tells the story about a Brooklyn band which wants to be famous, about friends, and a murder.
In October 2011, Paola Suhonen presented her newest project 'Gone With The River', filmed in the style of 'True Fiction'-cinema with mysterious images and fashion pieces by the Finnish label Seppälä which is the executive producer of the short film. The women's wear in the movie is designed by Paola Suhonen herself for the designer collection 'Paola Suhonen By Seppälä' FW2011/12.
Paola Suhonen started her own fashion/art project 'Ivana Helsinki' in 1998. In September 2011, the designer presented the Ivana Helsinki SS2012 collection 'Indian Summer' made of sunburned cotton and feather prints during New York Fashion Week.
