Conrad loves Beatrice while Beatrice loves herself. Together, they make for an odd pair, one unable to express his emotions, the other unable to contain them. Velvet is the story of their relationship and the crushed velvet jacket that comes between them. Stylish and sharp, the movie recalls the French New Wave and the early dramas of Woody Allen.—Anonymous
A commentary on the fragility of the modern relationship. Framed around a two year span, we see Conrad and Beatrice experience an array of ups and downs, laughs and contradictions. 'If love is the answer... Can you please rephrase the question?'
