Swedish clothing company H&M has commissioned film director Wes Anderson to direct this delightful short film/commercial for the Christmas season starring Adrien Brody.

Film-lovers will of course recognize Adrien ( together with Owen Wilson & Jason Schwartzman, frequent Wes collaborators ) from the director’s road trip film The Darjeeling Limited, and this short film captures the charm of the film in similar fashion. Check out the short below :

Wes Anderson’s love for symmetry is once again at play here, and is also explored in this excellent video posted a while back.

For folks who are relatively new to his work I highly recommend checking out these books dedicated to his filmmaking craft ( on top of watching his films, of course ) –
