Written By Justin Merino

Formafantasma Tacchini Flock is the latest project produced by C41 for Tacchini, directed by Filippo Raineri. The project represents a collaboration between the renowned Italian brand and Formafantasma, a design studio that engages in research to understand the ecological, historical, political, and social influences that shape the current state of design. The documentary showcases the brand's novel sustainable production system, emphasizing the importance of circularity of materials as a means to achieve greater sustainability. Formafantasma Tacchini Flock made its debut during Milan Design Week 2023 as a component of the Tacchini FLOCK installation.

Filippo Raineri is a film director based in Milan. Before becoming a director, he took his first steps as an assistant director and production assistant for commercials, as well as film productions such as House of Gucci directed by Ridley Scott. Telling stories is the best thing that a director can do, hence why his interests focus on the creation of branded content and documentaries.
