Music artist Devendra Banhart modelled and sang in eyewear campaign by company Oliver Peoples. Devendra Banhart and his girlfriend Rebecca Schwartz feature in film below which was shot by photographer Lisa Eisner. The screen play reflects that of French classics like Godard’s Une Femme Mariée, Eisner insisted that a real-life couple was casted with genuine chemistry, showing “infatuated cant-keep-your-hands-off-each-other moments.”
Psych-folk dude Banhart and Schwartz were up for the challenge, their liaison unfolding on staircases and shag carpets in the Rainbow House, architect John Lautner’s 1961 Los Angeles masterpiece. Banhart’s song “Brindo” from 2009 sets the mood for love.
