Background

Synopsis
This film features Gaga posing while wearing a custom hem-lined coat by Alexander McQueen from the personal collection of their friend Daphne Guinness. Afterwards, it fades to black and would show brief clips of Gaga in another black coat by Alexander McQueen, at one point would ask if everybody's quiet. It quickly transitions back to her while reciting an original sonnet about the responsibility and burdens about being an artist.
Transcript
Who studies honesty with wilder-gaze,
while through its oddity must its wings take flight!
Through alchemy the artist's mind's a maze,
a labyrinth of souls of joy and plight, and might.
Admired by all faithful to their craft, my gasp is quick!
Imagining we're free!
So like the way all children learn to laugh,
effortlessly I have loved thee.
If fantasy could surely make a friend,
the palette of your dreams would draw them mad.
Beyond the universe, you know no end.
Whilst some still search for color never had,
this life is only art, on life's support.
And nature is knight! No king, or court.
