The short film is Written and Directed by Director Kosuke Takaya. BUY BLING, GET ONE FREE takes a very sarcastic look at the world of fashion and the people addicted to it. The world of fashion as glamorous as it may look is not what it really is. The ones who follow it become addicted to it, and that addiction takes them too far away into materialism. It’s a kind of a slap-on-the-face movie, which makes fun of the fashion super models who in search of glamour and fame get themselves into the fashion world. Through that they successfully put themselves into the spotlight and come into the attention of the world, and once they realize they have gone too deep and turning back is impossible, they look for ways out but can’t find any. They realize that fame is a curse and returning to normal life is now non-existent for them.
