Morgan Hotel Group: Love is like Life but Longer
Director / Poppy de Villeneuve
Love is Like Life but Longer is a ten minute short film directed by Poppy, commissioned by Mondrian SoHo and Morgans Hotel Group to coincide with the grand opening of the new Mondrian SoHo hotel in New York.
The film features Jeremy Strong as a young and blind author, who when trying to find an elevator, meets and falls in love with a nun (Maya Kazan).
From an interview with Poppy in Dazed:
"Hotels are transient places, they are for new beginnings and become your home for a short period of time, they are also like a blank canvas, anything can happen there. I think that is romantic."
