‘The Soap Service’: a gift-giving spectacle, inspired by cinema

Seasonal Gift Kits

Merging the worlds of skin, scent and celluloid, ‘The Soap Service’ is an atmospheric short film that extends the cinematic theme of our latest collection of Gift Kits.  

Identifiable by her branded hat and bulging post bag, a lone courier moves through a dimly lit hallway—an apartment building, perhaps, or a hotel. Herringbone parquet points the way forward as our protagonist is presented with a series of doors, anticipation mounting as each is approached.  

Who dwells inside these rooms? And what are they waiting for?

‘The manner of giving is worth more than the gift.’
