Sinds dit weekend draait ‘Coward’ in de Nederlandse bioscopen. De nieuwe film van Lukas Dhont, bekend van ‘Close’ en ‘Girl’, vertelt het verhaal van twee jonge soldaten die tijdens de Eerste Wereldoorlog verliefd worden op elkaar.
 
Aan het front ontmoet Pierre, een verlegen boerenzoon, de flamboyante Francis, die met theatervoorstellingen de soldaten probeert op te vrolijken. Terwijl de oorlog doorgaat, groeit er tussen de twee mannen een bijzondere liefde. De film viel eerder al in de prijzen op het filmfestival van Cannes, waar hoofdrolspelers Emmanuel Macchia en Valentin Campagne samen de prijs voor Beste Acteur wonnen.

The Soldiers of COWARD

One of the biggest challenges in designing the costumes for COWARD was bringing an entire platoon of soldiers to life.

Although they all wore the same military uniform, we wanted each soldier to feel like an individual. Every uniform needed to tell its own story, trough its fit, the way it was worn, and the traces of wear and tear.

Fortunate, we were guided by historians and given access to rare archival black and white photographs, some of which had never seen the light of day.
The images became an invaluable part of my research.

We made some deliberate creative choices along the way. We refined the silhouette, adjusted the shades of red and green and carefully selected their numbers on the uniform. 

While remaining deeply respectful of the historical context, we also wanted to leave room for our own cinematic interpretation.

These uniforms went through so much: from digging graves to life in trenches, from moments of entertainment to the horrors of no man’s land.

Shout out to all the actors and extras who brought these soldiers to life 🍀🪖❤️‍🔥!
