Orlando is a character who lives for three centuries and undergoes repeated transformations during that time: changes in environment, social class, role and identity. From a searching young nobleman to a successful writer—Orlando constantly adapts to the evolving norms and expectations of their time.
The versatility of the character Orlando is showcased by alternating between costumes inspired by different eras. The costume designer, Rebekka Wörmann, actively sought clothing that transcends the gender fashion norms that we are familiar with. By incorporating both extremely slowed-down and sped-up footage, the aim is to create the sensation that the viewer is being taken through time.
