The Making Of Our VACANZA Film

Behind The Seams

12 July 2021

At the end of May, we drove to Cornwall with our friend and filmmaker, Teodora Berglund. As the VACANZA capsule embodies adventure and the joy of travel, we wanted to create a short film to capture this spirit in a way that a still image could never do.

We picked up a cherry red 1964 Mercedes 230SL from the Classic Car Club in London and hit the road to St. Ives.

The film follows two people on a road trip when they make an impromptu stop at a beautiful point off the beaten path to search for a place to unwind and enjoy the moment.

For us, these moments define luxury. There is no agenda and the day can take whatever turn you wish to make. The beauty lies in creating memories, spending time with those you love and the exhilaration of being on an uncharted path.
